1) All groups are processed daily.
.
2) Each group has an accumulator to which values can be assigned.
.
3) If a group has a volume greater than it's 90-day average volume
.
if the group's index is greater than zero
3 is added to the group's accumulator
otherwise
3 is subtracted from the group's accumulator
.
4) If a group did not have a volume greater than it's 90-day average volume
.
if the group's accumulator value is greater than zero
1 is subtracted from the group's accumulator
otherwise
1 is added to the group's accumulator
.
5) special logic handles cases where the foregoing operations require a
transition between positive and negative values in the group accumulator.
(See modification note, below)
.
The information is recorded and reported in 5 columns, as follows:
.
GROUP - is the Media General Group Number
NAME - is the group name
NOW - is the current value of the accumulator
MAX - is the greatest value the accumulator has attained on its
present run
DAYS - is a visual indication of recent activity, as follows
.
Each day of the week is assigned a numeric and alphabetic value, like this
.
Monday 2 B b
Tuesday 3 C c
Wednesday 4 D d
Thursday 5 E e
Friday 6 F f
03/28/04: stop discarding the content of DAYS under certain conditions
This change will leave about 30 days activity for each group. Marks
indicate a group with volume above the 90-day average and the mark's
case shows whether the group was up or down on the high-volume day.
