How this works

We take the price of your chosen asset on the start date and divide your amount by it to get the units you'd have bought. Then we value those units at every month since, up to the latest price, to draw the line. The yearly rate (CAGR) is the single compound rate that turns your starting amount into today's value over the period. The dashed line shows what the same money would have earned in National Savings at the rate you set - a safe yardstick. Prices are scraped automatically and history is monthly; treat results as close estimates, not exact statements.

Does past performance predict the future?
No. A backtest only shows what already happened. A stock that rose 200% over three years can fall the next year, and a flat asset can surge. Use this to understand volatility and ranges, not to pick winners.
Why compare to National Savings?
National Savings is a low-risk government option, so it's a fair "do nothing risky" baseline. If a risky asset didn't beat it, you took on risk for nothing over that window. Change the rate field to match the certificate you'd actually use.
Are dividends included?
No - the stock line is price only, so for dividend payers the real total return was a bit higher than shown. See the dividend stocks page for current yields.
