Dear SAS communities, I have monthly returns and trying to compute future cumulative (compounded) returns for 1 month, 6 months, 12 months but I am having trouble. What if the return is missing at the beginning? Then we have to go to the next one. If return is missing in the middle we can use the one from the previous months.
