Wolfe’s tax loss selling stocks within industrials, tech, materials

 Wolfe Research put together a tax loss selling basket.

Here is part 1.

Typically, the biggest year-to-date losers underperform in a big way during the last months of the year, and with the Oct. 31 mutual fund year-end approaching, analysts expect tax loss selling to accelerate.

“Historically, avoiding the biggest year-to-date losers has been a positive alpha generating strategy heading into the last several months of the year,” wrote Chris Senyek, chief investment strategist, in a note. “The reason is that the market’s biggest laggards can be subject to selling pressures by investors looking to harvest capital losses and/or provide ‘window dressing’ for their annual reports.”

September, October and December are the most common for mutual funds.
