This is an update on performance since the last of April. The table has been extended to show performance through Friday's close.

The week of 11/7 and 11/21 had small upward increases, but since 10/17 it has been "bad news". Probably will be an increase in prices for the group next week, but more time will be needed to see if the trend is broken.
