Price History

The shaded fan is where this price has historically travelled over the months after a close like today’s. It is not a forecast: it has no view on direction, only on distance.

$56.86$103.98$151.1$198.22
2021-102026-09 · $123.8

Over 3 months from Sep 2026, roughly two-thirds of past moves landed between $104.31 and $146.93; nine in ten between $93.4 and $164.1.

Tested against this asset’s own history: across 134 past 3-month windows, the price actually landed inside the two-thirds band 69% of the time. The gap from 68% is the model’s error — real returns have fatter tails than the maths assumes, so the band gets breached more often than it claims.

Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $18,437 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +208.6%.

Lump sum instead — $14,900 all at once in May 2014: $97,085 (+551.6%) — lump sum came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Jan 2025): $1,802 on $2,100 invested (-14.2%).

⚠ Price returns only — dividends are not included. This understates the true return of dividend-paying shares, and any comparison against crypto (which pays no dividends) is biased against equities by roughly the dividend yield, compounded.
