Today was the last day of the year to sell your losers and get the tax benefit this year.
I had forgotten all about that. Then again I have no dogs to get rid of.

That is exactly what I was thinking. It's tax-protection week for the big traders.

Actually if they were smart they would have filed with the IRS a certain way last year where they can sell losers and buy back any time they want. The 30 day rule is not in this type of filing. If I remember right it's called Mark to Market, and please correct this anybody who knows for sure.
