Scenarios

Inflation — the same contributions merely keeping pace with CPI would be $95,410 today, so the real (inflation-adjusted) return is +223.7%.

Lump sum instead — $51,400 all at once in Nov 1983: $1,448,484 (+2718.1%) — lump sum came out ahead.

Worst timing — same monthly amount started at the all-time high (Jun 2025): $1,310 on $1,500 invested (-12.7%).

⚠ 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.

Hypothetical — this backtests the group’s cap-weighted index, which isn’t directly investable. A real tracker fund adds fees and tracking difference, and the index only spans months where enough members have history.
