RE:"Why does tax-loss selling not continue right up until the end of the year?" Most funds' fiscal years end October 31. OTOH, tax loss selling can occur anytime...but usually it's done in the few months prior to the end of ones tax year... RE:"Re: TA. Eeek, I guess you're right. Sort of macro-TA. Scary.<g>" Hope for you yet. LOL. Often the quirks in the market work well over time...Like buy stocks in November and sell in April or stocks go up the last few days of the month and the first three days of the next. Jim
