Even though more money was removed out of stock funds in Jul

[netigen]

Even though more money was removed out of stock funds in July as in any month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as an industry trade group had previously estimated.

A. as in any month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as
B. as had been in any other month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as what
C. than there was in any other month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as that which
D. than in any month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as
E. than in any other month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as what

"Even though MORE .... "

Word "MORE" suggests comparison... so usage of "THAN" would be correct. So we are left with C, D and E.

C - "than there was..." is redundant...

D - removes the word "other" while saying "than in any month..."

E - Correctly uses "than in any other month". Also the usage of "what" in the end makes it more clear.

So, I would go for Choice E.

[mmshaban]

Either D or E but i'd go with D..

[mmshaban]

I didn't see the "WHAT" at the end, hmm i think is E is good

[anju]

E is the correct choice: reasons
- than in any OTHER month - Correct Idiom
- were not as low as WHAT - without what the statement means that the comparison is sales of fund shares and industry trade group

[navami]

Narrowed down to B and E. Between B and E, E is correct. B uses had been with since which is wrong.

A. as in any month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as -----> it should be any other
B. as had been in any other month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as what
C. than there was in any other month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as that which --------> usage of "that and which" in the same sentence is wrong
