Merge into Capital Gain

[edit]

Losses are merely negative gains; one page should suffice. Further, I think that the tax ramifications of Capital Losses/Gains should be put as a separate section under Capital Gains. Avi 22:07, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I strongly disagree...capita loss is different from capital gain. Also, please use the merge template if you want to merge.WP:MERGESmallman12q (talk) 16:50, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I strongly agree that it should be merged into the Capital gain article. A capital loss (the concept - no its tax treatment) is always just a capital gain with a negative sign. Both are merely the profit or loss and a loss is a negative profit. The US tax treatment should be covered on Capital gains tax in the United States; not here. This article should just redirect to Capital gain. 86.158.229.99 (talk) 19:23, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It is a very short article. Not much else to say. Smallman12q (talk) 16:59, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
