* Monthly averages are a simple average of all the closes during the month. Weekly and monthly averages are independent 

calculations. 

** Weekly averages are simple averages of the closes during the calendar week and are for information purposes. Should the 

week be split between two months, the weekly average will appear in the monthly report in which the Friday close is reported.
