Q: I sold TTD and AMZN to realize a tax loss more than 30 days ago and I know that I can buy them back today with no issues. I bought ROKU and SHOP respectively as proxies a week later with the proceeds. They are both down (I guess things don't always work out!). The first question is can I sell both of these and claim a tax loss despite my not having owned them for 30 days?

Secondly, I am assuming you would recommend buying AMZN back (not that you don't like SHOP) but would you still re-purchase TTD? Does APPS offer a potentially better return? Or might you stay the course with ROKU? It appears to me that these companies are similar businesses.

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Hi 5i
Aside from a better market backdrop, what will it take for SHOP to regain investor confidence? Is it similar to AMZN a few years ago, where AMZN ploughed all its cash flow into expanding its business, but at some point paused somewhat and showed some big profits?
Thanks
