Capital loss
Capital loss
A capital loss results when the value of an asset decreases below the original purchase price. If a share of stock is purchased for $10, and the value subsequently declines to $8, the stockholder incurs an unrealized capital loss. If the stockholder decides to sell the share for $8, the capital loss would then be realized.
