Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $23,759 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +124.0%.

Lump sum instead — $18,600 all at once in Mar 2011: $146,469 (+687.5%) — lump sum came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Feb 2026): $672.16 on $700 invested (-4.0%).

⚠ 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.
