What this return means
HP Inc (HPQ) turned $1,000 into $1,635 since 2010. The total return is +63.5% over 16.6 years, as of 2026-06-01.
That is only about 3% a year once you compound it across 16.6 years. By comparison the S&P 500 returned about $9,294 on the same stake, edging out HP Inc by close to $7,659. The index compounded at about 14.4% 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 2014 at +79.9%, and the worst was 2013 at -39.3%. At its lowest point the position was down about 63% 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.
None of this is a recommendation. It is a record of what already happened, and past performance does not guarantee future results.
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 HP Inc at the close of every month from January 2010 through June 2026 means 198 buys and $19,800 contributed over about 16.5 years.
$100/month, dollar-cost averaged
$33,989
+71.7% on $19,800 in
Same $19,800, all in at the start
$32,373
+63.5% on $19,800 in
Spreading the buys out beat going all in at the start by $1,616. 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 $12.63 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 HPQ split-adjusted monthly closes through June 2026. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
