Sold 100% of WPS. Used proceeds to purchase RWX. (Tax loss harvest complete.)

 

Sold 100% of ACAS, AINV and MCGC. Used proceeds to purchase PSP. (I was increasingly uncomfortable overweighting the small-cap value/private equity sector using individual stocks, so I took the loss and converted to PSP.)
