As far as I know the 3K limit on capital gains losses is news to me, please elaborate on it if you can. I do believe because of the 2-1 split next month, ATHM could very well gain more than ~65 points (pre-split) in about a month.

<<Also, in terms of taxes, no matter how big your loss, aren't you limited to deducting 3K per year for capital gains losses? You can carry over the rest of the loss to future years, but your per year deduction is limited. >> That's what my accountant has told me. I just bought NETP a final time this afternoon (at around $16 5/8). I now am fully loaded with this stock and it is my largest position by a LOOOOooooong Shot..<GG>!! My investing time horizon is a LONG one and I expect good things from the company in the next few months. Best Regards, Scott
