Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be £73,265 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +9.5%.

Lump sum instead — £42,100 all at once in Jun 1988: £6,628 (-84.3%) — DCA came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Jul 1989): £80,026 on £40,900 invested (+95.7%).

⚠ 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 real estate.

It rates Medium-High Risk at 2.6/5, meaning real but ordinary risk — the kind most mainstream assets carry, with some factors scoring poorly.

What pushes the score up: earnings quality (5.0/5) and market / volatility (3.0/5).

Scoring well: leverage / financial 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.

Ratings summarise sourced facts against fixed rules — not investment advice, and no substitute for your own diligence.
