$3k/yr, right? So your loss offset in taxes plays out over a long period of time (like from 2001-2015, for your 2000 return)


Yes, that is correct and thanks for pointing out that I had not included the "/yr" after the $3K. I have now corrected it in the comment above. So, yes, you keep carrying any capital loss of this type forward until you get to deduct the whole thing over time, either at $3k/yr or as an offset against future capital gains.
