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.
Over 3 months from Sep 2026, roughly two-thirds of past moves landed between $32.56 and $43.9; nine in ten between $29.57 and $48.34.
Tested against this asset’s own history: across 446 past 3-month windows, the price actually landed inside the two-thirds band 72% 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.
Time underwater
How far below its previous all-time high the price sat, each month. 0% means a new high.
Worst drawdown: −97%, peaking Oct 2007 and bottoming Mar 2009 — still unrecovered after 227 months.

Scenarios
Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $79,311 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +107.9%.
Lump sum instead — $46,100 all at once in May 1988: $633,833 (+1274.9%) — lump sum came out ahead.
Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Oct 2007): $43,142 on $22,800 invested (+89.2%).
⚠ 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.

(Wikipedia)
It's a listed company categorised under consumer discretionary and casinos & gaming, with a market cap of about $9.5B.
It rates High Risk at 3.0/5, meaning several rated factors score badly, so this carries materially more risk than a typical holding.
What pushes the score up: market / volatility (4.3/5) 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.
