Vmware stock to cash

Will this be considered capital gain or income. Asking because I would want to offset the gain with some other stock losses.

Not income Can be used to offset other losses

Depends on when you acquired the stocks.

If it’s classified as RSU, then when you received the vest, you got taxed on your W2 as ordinary income. Any subsequent sell that has a gain/loss would be capital gains/loss; your vest price is your cost basis.
