Brian,

I believe it is a fallacy to assume that there will be very limited tax loss selling this year due to the lack of investment profits to offset. This is because (1) such tax losses can also offset ordinary income and (2) such losses can be carried forward to offset both investment and ordinary income in future years, when hopefully there will once more be gains to offset ;-)
