Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $15,877 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +228.7%.

Lump sum instead — $13,100 all at once in Oct 2015: $90,019 (+587.2%) — lump sum came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Jul 2026): $222.73 on $200 invested (+11.4%).

⚠ 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.

The Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (HPE) is an American multinational information technology company based in Spring, Texas. It is a business-focused organization which works in servers, storage, networking, AI, containerization software and consulting and support. HPE was ranked No. 107 in the 2018 Fortune 500 list of the largest United States corporations by total revenue. (Wikipedia)

It's a listed company categorised under information technology and technology hardware, storage & peripherals, with a market cap of about $77.8B.

It rates High Risk at 3.2/5, 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 leverage / financial (4.0/5).

Scoring well: sector / regulatory at 1.0/5.

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