I have a bunch ( for me) of American Battery Technology.
Is it going under? I have really lost value in this equity.
Thanks

If you've lost a lot of money, sell now so you can write the loss off on your taxes or use the loss to offset gains on other stock sales. If you believe the company will rebound eventually, you can buy it back in 30 days time, this to avoid what's known as a "wash sale". If you don't think the company will rebound, put the funds to better use elsewhere.

If you believe the company will rebound eually, you can buy it back in 30 days time, this to avoid what's known as a "wash sale". If you don't think the company will rebound, put the funds to better use elsewhere. Wait until the 31st day to buy back or double up and sell the higher cost basis position 31 days later. The 30 day rule is the no zone for wash sale calculations. If you do any of these on day 30 then you created a wash sale.
