Re: Formula Help

Two quick questions.

1.  To get back to the the close of last trading day of '97, do you plug in
the number for all the days that follow or just trading days?

2.  Changing ">" to "<" (no quotes), and placing a decimal point ".30", does
not give you the reverse (stocks that have fallen by 30% or more.  How would
that be written?

Thanks,

Hans
