Explanation:

Given the eight values below:

Gaining Value

When the value is greater than 0, the stock is gaining value.

The values that indicate a gain are:

$\ 3,\ \text{25, }\ \text{47}$

Losing Value

When the value is less than 0, the stock is losing value.

The values that indicate a loss are:

$\text{ -}\ 6,\text{ -}\ 20,\text{-}\ \text{35, }-\ \text{1}$
