Hi Myst, nice to see you around camp again. I want to make sure I understand the starting points of your comparisons. I assume that Buy & Hold started fully invested with $10,000. So they began with (and end with) 187.13 shares. Your method starts with 125 shares and ends with 218.17 shares (and $1044.44 in cash). That is an increase of 31.04 shares over B&H (16.6%). If the remaining cash was deployed at the last price of $39.32, it would equate to 26.56 more shares. This would bring your share count to 244.73 for a 30.8% increase over B&H. I may be scratching at this all wrong but I see that as a significant gain for the year 2001. I don't see the data available to make the same comparison to AIM BTB. I know it started with 125 shares and $3320 in reserve. Can you tell me how many shares and how much reserve AIM BTB finished with? One other thing that I'm curious about is choosing Tuesday for your weekly update? Is that like our Friday up in Mystville? :^0) Would the results been much different if you started with your initial buy on that 1st Tuesday of the year and then updated with Friday's closing price for the remainder? TIA Keith
