Why the S&P Returns 10%
January 5th, 2007 Posted in Investing
Moneywise from The Real Returns had a recent post where he explained from “The Little Book of Value Investing” by Christopher H. Browne why the S&P 500 has historic returns around 10 percent. The full explaination is over at his site, but essentially, you “take the sum of the long term earnings growth (6 percent) and the dividend yield (4 percent), and you get a long-term annually compounded rate of return for the S&P 500 of about 10 percent.”
