I sold VCSH and BND (bond ETFs) today to get the cash to buy. They were both up a little bit today.
Also, I can unwind the VBR and VXF positions without "free-riding" nor wash sale possibilities at any time because I own them in other accounts from way back, so I have positions with long-term gains that I can sell. When I do realize the gains, I will offset them with my carryover losses, so I will not have taxes to pay.
And if they go down, I have more bond fund shares to exchange into equities, but VBR is up almost 1% from where I bought already. There, I've jinxed it.
