I figured out why you got weird results on the >5% screen. If you click on the column heading to sort it to percentage return you will see that it only gives you the stocks that are 15% or >. There are no stocks included between 5%-14.99% on it. The other screens appear to be working fine.

qualify the type of "average" meant

What I took him to mean was that if you averaged the return from all the stocks on the NYSE.

In my minds eye I see Wile E Coyote that long second before he lands in the puff of dust.

You and everyone else it seems. No one sees that the wider universe of stocks beyond the ones everyone knows are recovering from their own bear market. Everyone is concentrating on the fact that the big stocks in the indices which were over bought for YEARS are now reverting to mean. Just as they couldn't see that most stocks on the NYSE were floundering while the bubble on the NASDAQ inflated. Somewhere out there some small cap manager is laughing until he wets his pants because the retail investors are always the last to figure out where the money went and where it's going next.
