I had some stocks that were delisted from the exchange. I'm wondering if I can claim these delisted stocks as a loss for tax purposes or if there's any way to recoup my investment. Can I claim delisted stock as a loss?

Many delisted stocks continue to trade in other markets, indicating that they still have some value.

Therefore, even if a stock is delisted, it may not meet the IRS's criteria for being considered totally worthless.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has specific regulations regarding the deduction of stock losses.

According to these regulations, a stock must be deemed totally worthless before a deduction can be claimed.

This means that if a stock is merely delisted from one market, it does not necessarily qualify for a deduction.
