What this return means
$1,000 placed in Total Market (VTI) in 2023 is worth $1,905 now. The total return is +90.5% over 3.5 years, as of 2026-06-01.
In compound terms that is roughly 20.2% a year, well above what a broad index has historically returned. 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 +26.2%, and the worst was 2024 at +19.2%. 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.
