Default geometric mean of a series of negative asset returns

The GEOMEAN function calculates the geometric mean for a series of
positive numbers.

I have a series of negative numbers (asset returns) for which I want
to calculate the geometric mean.

Is there any easy way to calculate this? The series is about 30
numbers long and I would prefer not to build this manually...

Thanks in advance.
