you think we hold green and rally today?

I'm really not sure if the margin calls are cleaned out yet?

the bulls in my office are all loading in here for a 2-3 day bounce...

And all this time I thought it was buy low/sell high..

Much of the gains in early 2000 were probably short term which at the highest brackets would be taxed at 41%. Taking the loss against it gives you a 41% premium. For instance selling csco at 40 is like getting 63-64 or so. And then you can wait 31 days or buy a comprable stock simultaneously to keep you in the market. The one year hold for lt is a tough thing to do in volatile markets.
