Hope you are well.
I have a return series stretching back just over 3 years. As I add new monthly returns I would like to be able to automatically calculate 3-month, 6-month, 1-year returns using the most recent date as the reference point. I know this can be achieved through a combination of the PRODUCT and OFFSET functions but cannot for the life of me get the formulas right. Could someone point me to the correct syntax? For reference the returns are laid out as below, in a horizontal fashion
Many thanks in advance
