"Well, first of all, remember that my screen name is Math Junkie, not Math "Expert." 8-)"

"I would say you need to use number of times and magnitude of deviation, right or wrong, and integrate it... which is what measuring his record vs. the S&P500 or W5000 does."

I agree that's a good way to evaluate his record, but that's not what Sue said.


That is why I think it is important to point out that is not a useful way to measure anything. The first thing that comes to my mind is most felons in jail would be free if they were measured on their "average day" not their worst day when they committed a crime.
