Era outcomes use each era's basket CAGR (compound annual growth) for the years held. For years before an era's tracking begins, the era's row uses the era's start year as the entry point. S&P 500 returns are Total Return (with reinvested dividends) via Yahoo Finance's ^SP500TR series. Past performance does not guarantee future results — illustrative, not investment advice.
