Chart of the Day: Returns are Rarely Normal

Crews Bank & Trust Wealth Management Services Jun 28, 2023

Contents

Today’s Chart of the Day comes from A Wealth of Common Sense showing the range of annual returns over the last 95 years. The long-term average is 10% over the entire period. “Normal returns" between 8% and 12% only occurred five times, which is less than 5% of the time. Don’t despair in the short run, as annual returns are rarely normal. In the long run, since the market was up three out of four years, everything worked out fine.
