What if you'd invested?
Pick an amount and an asset. See what it would be worth today on real prices - with the return, the yearly rate (CAGR), and how it compares to leaving the money in National Savings.

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.
