What this return means
A $1,000 position in Marriott (MAR) opened in 2000 is worth $32,679 today. That works out to +3167.9%, about 33x the original stake, as of 2026-06-01.
That is about 14% a year compounded, broadly in line with long-run stock market averages. The same $1,000 in an S&P 500 index fund over the same span would be about $8,517, so Marriott beat the index by roughly $24,162. The index compounded at about 8.4% a year over that period.
Getting here meant sitting through real volatility. The best single year was 2018 at +76.4%, and the worst was 2009 at -54.0%. At its lowest point the position was down about 65% 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 Marriott at the close of every month from January 2000 through June 2026 means 318 buys and $31,800 contributed over about 26.5 years.
$100/month, dollar-cost averaged
$356,548
+1,021.2% on $31,800 in
Same $31,800, all in at the start
$1,039,221
+3,168.0% on $31,800 in
Going all in at the start beat spreading the buys out by $682,672. 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 $33.05 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 MAR split-adjusted monthly closes through June 2026. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
