Many people considering investing may point to the S&P 500’s average yearly return of 10%, which has been its historical average for nearly a century. However, the index has had a good run recently, returning approximately 32% in the last year. For a while, the advances may be slowed.
Assume that the S&P 500 provides a 6% yearly average return from here. If you start with $100,000, you’ll end up with around $575,000 after 30 years (not counting dividends). Consider starting later but getting better results. Even if you make 8% per year for the next 20 years, you’ll only have $465,00 at the end of that time.
Longer investment horizons also provide the advantage of allowing the market’s overall rising trend to overcome any downturns. There have been multiple recessions, the Great Depression, wars, terrorist attacks, and a pandemic since the S&P 500 index was created in 1926. Despite all of the downturns, the S&P 500 has an average yearly return of 10%.
