  • !Historical performance is not a forecast and does not tell you which asset to buy.

Questions before comparing

Why use the same date and amount?+

Using the same inputs makes the historical comparison easier to interpret; it does not equalize the assets’ risks.

Why can real returns differ?+

Your trade timing, product, fees, taxes, exchange rate and execution price may differ from the assumptions here.

Can I compare a regular investment plan?+

Yes. Choose Monthly DCA and use the same recurring contribution for all three assets.
