Dear Simari,
try the following short script:
<script>
list stocks = dataset
loop foreach i stocks
genr r_$i = ($i-$i(-1))/$i(-1)*100
endloop
<\script>

Subject: [Gretl-users] GRETL: Return Computation
Dear,
anyone knows how to compute the return of all stocks (500) in only one
command?
I have to insert this formula
"(Microsft-Microsoft(-1))/Micorsoft(-1)*100
for 500 different stocks and I would like to know if there's a way to do
that giving only one command.
Thanks,
G. Simari

Thanks, that's now fixed in CVS and snapshots.

I'm not quite sure what you're asking. You can get a confidence
band for forecasts from OLS models (as you probably know). What's
new is a choice of graphical representation of the confidence
interval for bootstrapped VAR impulse responses.
