How the Column Stacks Up
Inside Wall Street featured 172 stocks in 50 issues in 1997. For each issue,
the returns for the market benchmarks were calculated for each of four time
periods. Those returns were then averaged over all 50 issues, and the results
are below. The average return for the column was figured the same way.
