What this return means
$1,000 in Home Depot (HD) in 2005 grew to $12,556. That works out to +1155.6%, about 13x the original stake, as of 2026-06-01.
That is about 12.5% a year compounded, broadly in line with long-run stock market averages. A plain S&P 500 fund would have turned that $1,000 into about $9,466 instead, leaving Home Depot ahead by around $3,089. The index compounded at about 11% a year over that period.
The year-by-year record shows how bumpy the ride was. The best single year was 2013 at +54.1%, and the worst was 2009 at -27.1%. At its lowest point the position was down about 44% 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.
