Bull, Folks looking to take a stock loss

Don't really care if the price drops. The point is to capitalize the loss for use against current (and/or future) gains. If the price drops, well you're planning to buy the equivalent number of shares back in 30 days so if the price then is below what you sold for you're a real winner.

Even if the price has bounced back to somewhat above what you sold for, you are re-entering with the idea that the stock is going to soar in the next year.

For those sitting on gains the ploy is probably to tough it out and grin and bear it through another fall off of CAPC pps in the interval between now and the approximate March 15 release of earnings.

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. - Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)
