OP, do you have capital losses, or is this just a theoretical question? The market is at an all-time high.
OP doesn't say s/he owns "the market". OP could have bought Game Stop 5/14/24 or 1/27/2021.
Ahhh... another one of those inquiries in which only some of the information is provided, and bogleheads are asked to render an opinion. This happens a lot around here.
yeah, it helps to read between the lines, or at least not assume everyone invests the same way you do!

one of my favorites was a few years ago I noticed a habit of people responding to posts about someone selling in their account...only they didn't say what type of account! Many posters assumed the OP was talking about a retirement account so they were saying there was no tax implication of selling in retirement account (even though that phrase was never uttered by the OP). So I saw not all info was there and asked the simple question, "Is this a retirement account or taxable?" and the OP said taxable and everyone who had posted had to say "forget what I wrote" because it was no longer relevant. GIGO.
