Interesting how real interests got to such a high level before the compounded returns on the S&P took a breather. Over the next few years it will be interesting to see what happens on a interest rate level in both Europe and the US

Thanks so much! I find investing data fascinating and believe many investors hear too much about daily and quarterly data with a lack of easy to understand information on long-term investing outcomes.

Also, I think showing real returns that include dividend yield is a fair comparison over longer time horizons.

Best!

I like how user friendly the charting and tables are. The comparison between return and real interest rates is very interesting.

Stephen:

thank you for putting this together and for sharing your insights. These graphs offer powerful illustrations that investment decisions have to be based on so much more than just picking stocks/funds with a good track record! Looking forward to seeing your book.
