Hi Math Man,

Could you kindly offer an equation for arriving at a weighted average for stocks purchased during a given time period?

IOW, for the same ticker, if I made one purchase of 100 shares, another of 300, another of of 60, etc, on different dates during the same quarter, how do I calculate the weighted average number of shares during the quarter for use in average performance evaluation?

Mahalo, Mike

Enough with this math crap about zero and infinity. Here is the real truth:

As we all know, in today's world: Knowledge is Power

And as has been said many times before: Time is Money

And as every engineer knows: Power = Work/Time

Therefore,

Since: Knowledge = Power

and Time = Money

Then: Knowledge = Work/Money

Solving for Money, we get:

Money = Work/Knowledge

Thus, as knowledge approaches zero, money approaches infinity regardless of work done.

Conclusion: The less you know, the more you make.
