Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $24,210 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +319.4%.

Lump sum instead — $18,900 all at once in Dec 2010: $189,402 (+902.1%) — lump sum came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Jul 2026): $199.37 on $200 invested (-0.3%).

⚠ 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.

About Targa Resources

Targa Resources Corp. is a Fortune 500 company based in Houston, Texas. Targa, a midstream energy infrastructure corporation, is one of the largest infrastructure companies delivering natural gas and natural gas liquids in the United States. Their operations are based largely, though not entirely, on the Gulf Coast, particularly in Texas and Louisiana. Matthew J. Meloy has been Chief Executive Officer since 2020. (Wikipedia)

It's a listed company categorised under energy and oil & gas storage & transportation, with a market cap of about $57.6B.

It rates High Risk at 3.1/5, meaning several rated factors score badly, so this carries materially more risk than a typical holding.

What pushes the score up: leverage / financial (5.0/5) and market / volatility (4.3/5).

Scoring well: earnings quality 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.
