$Visa (V.US)$ $Moelis & Co (MC.US)$
Visa and Mastercard seem to be joined at the hip. Their charts, P/E, forecasts, dividends, etc are similar. Currently down about 15% on Visa so I'm thinking of selling at a loss to offset taxes on some of my gains this year and moving that money temporarily into Mastercard. Then when the new year hits, switch it right back into Visa (I prefer this since it's my payment method of choice).
