Subject: Re: If VL screens disappear, what next?
The following is an attempt to determine the basis of the return values in Value Line Standard. I ran the numbers off of AAPL prices - dividend and split adjusted. In the software it claims prices are based on 2/7/2025 at 7:01 PM. As you'll see that is not exactly true.

1. Total Return 1-Week: Thursday CLOSE on 2/6/2025 and Thursday CLOSE on 1/30/2025 (-1.84%)
2. Total Return 4-Week: Thursday CLOSE on 2/6/2025 and Wednesday CLOSE on 1/8/2025 (-3.91%)
3. Total Return 13-Week: Rubbish!
4. Total Return 26-Week: Rubbish!
5. Total Return YTD: Rubbish

Returns for 1-Year, 3-Year, 5-Year, 10-Year (3,5,10 are CAGR returns), 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, etc. are all close enough.

Which returns are used in the screens posted each week? I can easily fix the file so that 13, 26, and YTD are corrected.
