            sought to recover his investment well beyond such date.  We                                  
            conclude that petitioner's loss from his investment with AWS was                             
            not fixed with reasonable certainty by the end of his 1993                                   
            taxable year.  Accordingly, we hold that he is not entitled to a                             
            deduction for any such loss for 1993 and thus did not make an                                
            overpayment of tax.                                                                          
                  To reflect the foregoing,                                                              

                                                             Decision will be entered                    
                                                       for petitioner as to the                          
                                                       deficiency and the penalty and                    
                                                       for respondent as to the                          
                                                       claimed overpayment.
