What this return means
A $1,000 stake in China Large-Cap (FXI) from 2015 sits at $1,001 today. The total return is +0.1% over 11.6 years, as of 2026-06-01.
That is only about 0% a year once you compound it across 11.6 years. Because this is a broad S&P 500 fund, it is the benchmark here rather than something measured against it.
The path was not smooth. The best single year was 2025 at +49.2%, and the worst was 2024 at -29.4%. At its lowest point the position was down about 53% from an earlier high. 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 China Large-Cap (FXI) at the close of every month from January 2015 through June 2026 means 138 buys and $13,800 contributed over about 11.5 years.
$100/month, dollar-cost averaged
$13,807
+0.0% on $13,800 in
Same $13,800, all in at the start
$13,813
+0.1% on $13,800 in
Going all in at the start beat spreading the buys out by $7. That is the usual result when a stock trends up: each monthly buy pays a higher price than the last, so the average cost climbs. Averaging in also meant an average buy price of $31.33 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.
