Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $7,595 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +72.3%.

Lump sum instead — $6,900 all at once in Dec 2020: $10,271 (+48.9%) — DCA came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Sep 2025): $1,311 on $1,200 invested (+9.3%).

⚠ 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.

It's a listed company categorised under consumer discretionary and specialized consumer services.

It rates High Risk at 2.9/5, meaning several rated factors score badly, so this carries materially more risk than a typical holding.

What pushes the score up: earnings quality (5.0/5) and market / volatility (3.7/5).

Scoring well: sector / regulatory at 1.0/5.

Not yet researched: leverage / financial, concentration, governance. These are excluded from the score rather than guessed, so the real risk may be higher than what’s shown.
