One way to prevent stock losses?

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lasso

(Other definitions for lasso that I've seen before include "Rope with noose for catching animals" , "Cattle-catching rope" , "Catch (steers) with a rope" , "Ling-nosed rope" , "A cowboy's rope with a running noose" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
