To find the total profit or loss for the 4 days, we need to add up all the individual gains and losses.

On Thursday, there was a loss of $26.
On Friday, there was a loss of $11.
On Saturday, there was a loss of $9.
On Sunday, there was a profit of $13.

To calculate the total profit or loss, we add up these amounts: -26 + (-11) + (-9) + 13.

Adding these numbers together, we get: -26 - 11 - 9 + 13.

Simplifying further, we have: -46 + 13.

Finally, calculating the result, we have: -33.

Therefore, the correct answer is A) $33 loss.
