What this return means

Chipotle (CMG) is one of the losers in this dataset. That stake is worth $938 as of 2026-06-01, a -6.2% move that left you with less than you started with after 3.5 years.

That averages out to -1.8% a year, meaning the position shrank in compound terms across the 3.5-year window. The same $1,000 in an S&P 500 index fund would be about $1,942 over the identical span, so the index came out ahead by roughly $1,004. The index compounded at about 20.9% a year, a reminder that a single stock can lag a basket of them.

The year-by-year record shows how bumpy the ride was. The best single year was 2024 at +46.3%, and the worst was 2025 at +21.1%. At its lowest point the position was down about 33% 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.
