CSI 300: data unavailable for this year; excluded from rankings.

What if you invested the same amount each year?

Each year is a separate simulation using the same starting amount. 2026 is year to date through the stated observation date, not a full-year return. Results do not compound.

The latest 10 complete years are shown by default, plus an older year or YTD when selected. History varies by index; missing data is not zero.

Sources & methodology

Historical figures come from Wikipedia annual tables and Yahoo Finance public historical closes, with sources and observation dates retained. These are secondary sources, not individually verified official feeds or live quotes.

Source tables checked 2026-10-21 · Version 2026-10-21.3

Price return = (ending close / base close − 1) × 100%. Gain or loss = starting amount × return; ending balance = starting amount + gain or loss. 2026 uses the 2025 year-end close as its base. Reported returns retain source precision; calculated returns retain calculation precision and display two decimals.

Completed years use calendar-year periods; YTD uses the previous year-end close and each index’s observed ending session. Missing baselines or history remain unavailable. Germany uses the DAX price index, excluding dividends, rather than the headline performance index. Sources may be revised.

Nikkei 225 (2021) and EURO STOXX 50 (2017) remain withheld due to internal source-table conflicts. CSI 300 lacks a 2025 annual record and an available 2026 baseline. OMX Copenhagen 25 has no complete 2015–2016 records.
