For the first time in months, it appears that this week the Total Return N-Week fields have been calculated by Value Line.
It's a lot of work to see if they are actually right, but they are no longer so obviously wrong in the update file with the name "March 21", and a quick spot check or two seemed plausible.

Generally the 13-week, 26-week, and YTD return figures have been garbage every week for ages, though there have been other problems too.
These days, it's easier to post when they *haven't* messed it up.

Yes, I noted that when I posted the rankings on Monday. And someone has checked that the numbers were "close enough". It was bad for about two months. Let's hope that they have restored their normal process.
