Realize the tax aspects

Was coming off a $67,000 loss from 1998 in oil services, almost recovered all of it, then this. Had 5,000 shares of AMAT, would have now been worth $900,000 profit.

If we sell now, we basically lose everything. Bought here with 20% margin, and have had to use cash advances to hang on for dear life. Pretty stupid, yes. No one forced this to be bought. If we hang on, it could still get worse. Right now everything looks lose-lose.

Will leave it at that.
