We
compute prior return breakpoints for each month. The prior return at the end of
month t is the cumulative return from month t-11 to month t-1. |

| Stocks: |

The
breakpoints for month t use NYSE stocks. To be included, a stock must have a
price for the end of month t-12 and a good return for t-1. In addition, any
missing returns from t-11 to t-2 must be -99.0, CRSP's code for a missing
price. |
