>My main point was not that the minus sign was missing but rather that 2% and -1% per month with a 50/50 chance won't get you to 12% per year. That was worthwhile pointing out IMO.<

I apologize. You are right. The average of 2% and -1% is only 0.5% which only gets you 6%.

>It was never my intention to offend you, Pancho. I don't know why you feel and react that way.<

I apologize again! I guess I am not having a great day today. My example should have used 3% and -1% for an equal likelihood average of 1%/month.
