Year-by-Year Returns
$1,000 invested in Boeing starting January 2023
| Year | Price | Value | Annual |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | $213.00 | $1,000 | - |
| 2024 | $211.04 | $991 | -0.9% |

What this return means
$1,000 placed in Boeing (BA) in 2023 is worth $1,016 now. The total return is +1.6% over 3.6 years, as of 2026-06-01.
That is only about 0.5% a year once you compound it across 3.6 years. The same $1,000 in an S&P 500 index fund would be about $1,916 over the identical span, so the index came out ahead by roughly $900. The index compounded at about 19.9% a year, a reminder that a single stock can lag a basket of them.
Getting here meant sitting through real volatility. The best single year was 2024 at -0.9%, and the worst was 2025 at -16.4%. These figures use split-adjusted closing prices and exclude dividends, taxes, trading fees, and inflation, so a real after-tax result would differ.

What if you invested $100 a month instead?
Most people do not drop a lump sum in on day one. They add a fixed amount every month. Putting $100 into Boeing at the close of every month from January 2023 through June 2026 means 42 buys and $4,200 contributed over about 3.5 years.
$100/month, dollar-cost averaged
$4,590
+9.3% on $4,200 in
Same $4,200, all in at the start
$4,268
+1.6% on $4,200 in
Spreading the buys out beat going all in at the start by $321. That happens when the price spent time below where it began, so averaging in caught the cheaper months. Averaging in also meant an average buy price of $198.08 per share across the whole stretch, so the monthly buyer never had to time a single low. Neither number counts dividends, taxes, or trading costs.
Illustrative fixed $100/month example, not a recommendation. Figures are computed from BA split-adjusted monthly closes through June 2026. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
