Thanks for the Vector update SpankerLee. Not only are you short Thq, but you are short between the ears. I like a contrarian opinion to keep things level. Hey Spank....short some more today...you can short at $21 1/2. You might be able to cover some at $19...maybe not.

For those of you new to this board, Spanker posted lies about how well WCW NWO was selling. He claims he made store checks and that WCW was sitting on the shelf collecting dust. I believe Bleeker and Haines verified that WCW NWO was flying off the shelf at the store in question. I really hope this guy loses his shirt because of his attempt at intentionally misinforming this board.

You are right. My broker told me tax loss selling takes place up to the last day of the year so that probably explains it. I looked it up in the 1997 Lasser guide section 5.14 It is the trade date now on the sale. Interestingly enough the holding period starts on the day after the trade date on the purchase.
