    Headhunter. What gives you the right to claim about what "most investors here" hold as being correct? You are making an assumption only. I, for one, have been holding significant capital losses since the GFC. Thus, what I have written below is correct. Your post contain errors. My loss in well into six figures.

    "When you have capital losses recorded, and then sell shares which incur a Gain, it doesn't matter if that gain occurs after the 12 months is up, as it is the full amount of gain (and not half of it) which gets written against the loss. The half price capital gains is lost if you have losses which are greater than the gain at full cost. Some people don't know this but that is a fact."

    Warning to others. Assumptions, errors, and poor levels of skill in the English language can result in posts which are misleading or factually wrong. Seek advice from a professional.
