Calculations on share prices

[ Q4-Q1 00 Archive ] [ Current Message Board ] [ Archives ] [ Search ]

Hi Mark,
Could you please let me know if FM can calculate and how, the following?

Suppose I have got 5 year historical data for a group of shares,(say FTSE 100):

Then,

1)I want to calculate the share price change (actually the percentage price increase ) for every stock over a period (say 3, 6, 9 or 12 months, within of course the 5 year period I have got tha data, i.e. March 2nd and Dec 2nd 1999).

2)I want to sort these into order (ascending or descending), based on the percentage increase between the March figure and the December figure.

I would much appreciate your help.

Harry
