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 $61.17 and $149.01; nine in ten between $45.9 and $198.57.
Built from 13 monthly closes rather than the full three years, so treat the width as provisional. Short windows tend to understate how violent an asset can be.
Time underwater
How far below its previous all-time high the price sat, each month. 0% means a new high.
Worst drawdown: −44%, peaking Sep 2025 and bottoming Dec 2025 — 8 months below the prior high before recovering.

Scenarios
Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $1,318 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +119.5%.
Lump sum instead — $1,300 all at once in Sep 2025: $2,686 (+106.6%) — DCA came out ahead.
Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Aug 2026): $219.27 on $200 invested (+9.6%).
Backtests use monthly closing prices. Stock dividends aren’t reinvested, so long-run equity returns are understated.
