Not hard at all when you tell the truth, the whole truth, and noting but the truth. Unlike Sr. Cigar. It's still not money made in '98 which is what everyone is worried about. I doubt anyone who bought Dell or MSFT in '94 really cares about this correction either. have a nice weekend jim

>>Is that so hard to understand?<< yes. the way you stated it was unclear. now it is clear. ps - the money was made since 1995 through 1998. it would be recognized for tax purposes this year if you sold this year. why do you think mutual funds are valued on the based on market value of their securities at the end of a given year - not based on what they have sold in a given year? b/c it is the ONLY way that makes sense.
