june selling for tax loss benefits., page-4

I should add that the point of my original post was not so much about the pros and cons of wash sales but pointing out that I expect volatility that could cause fluctuations up or down because of investors selling for tax loss reasons. If one has a reason why an SP is behaving in a particular way then one is less likely to make a decision to buy or sell that they later regret.

I will not be as worried if there is a large selling at this particular point in time as I would normally. I will also be looking for any oportunity that may arise because of this buying or selling.

Was today's fall due to this rather than disappointment in the small divvy payment as some have suggested.
