I'm not saying it's hard to understand.
And how are finance numbers, in what I linked to, static?
I have no problem with normalizing the number. That seems like the obvious best way. That's why they also do it in the finance graph I linked to.
- stingraycharles 7y agoSorry, I think static was not the correct word; I think I meant absolute, ie Tesla stock being worth $1k is the same for everyone. This is not the case with benchmarks, where the numbers are fairly meaningless and different for everybody, depending on their hardware.
- knorker 7y agoHow is it not the same with stock and funds, e.g. what I linked to? What I linked to doesn't show the fund price, it shows the value normalized. Just like benchmark values usually are. It's not the normalization I (and others) am saying is bad, it's the graph. But yes, stocks are usually shown graphed with their ticker value. Funds are usually not.
