¿Y si hubieras invertido? Explora la rentabilidad histórica

Many of the market’s strongest recovery days happened close to major selloffs, which is one reason investors study the cost of being out of the market during volatile periods.

Temporary drawdowns have appeared in every long market history, so long-term plans usually work better when they account for losses as well as gains.

Inflation changes what a portfolio can buy, which is why long-term return comparisons are more useful when people look at both nominal and inflation-adjusted results.

Regular contributions can materially change long-term outcomes because the timing and consistency of additions matter alongside the market return itself.

Market history repeatedly shows that concentration can amplify gains and losses, while diversification can reduce company-specific risk even though it cannot remove market risk.

Longer holding periods have historically reduced the influence of short-term price swings compared with very short evaluation windows.

Rates, recessions, wars, and inflation shocks have all affected asset prices at different times, which is why historical context matters when comparing past outcomes.

Investor behavior during fear and euphoria has often mattered as much as the underlying asset path, especially when people stop, sell, or delay a plan after a sharp move.

Entry date can meaningfully change results over short and medium periods, which is why scenario tools often compare multiple starting points instead of only one.
