Eric,

I've been wondering about that. Do you have any idea when
this starts? I suspect not until November. But maybe
it varies from year to year depending on how the market
has been doing for the year in question.

Eric et al,

re: There will be some serious "tax loss selling" coming up in the very near future which may put a lid on a significant rise until after the new year starts.

Wouldn't you think that all those sellers these past couple weeks would have taken tax losses into consideration when they chose which stocks to sell? I'm thinking the typical "tax loss selling" will be a non-event.
