You got this one backwards.
It was negative last time. This time it is positive.
It just came out so you probably grabbed the previous one. I downloaded it on "Mar 6 17:11"
RRSFS is + 2026/01/01,224606 vs. 2025/01/01,222941 +1.0074683436

In the excel file download it says "Data Updated: 2026-03-06"

RRSFS omits Oct 2025. The date is there but the value is missing. That's going to mess up things for a while. Caused my script to abort when it tried to do math with a NULL value.

My script checks them every weekday and downloads it if it has changed. I currently have 145 months as they were first published. In case people don't know, sometimes the most recent file has changes in older values when they are revised afterwards.
