Method and limitations

  • All return windows are calculated in code from the cited adjusted-close series. Ten-year values are annualized compound returns; one-year, one-month, and one-week values are period returns.
  • One-week values use adjusted closes dated October 30, 2026 and November 6, 2026. The downloadable CSV records the dates, adjusted closes, and arithmetic for every window.
  • The 21 rows are representative examples, not a complete market benchmark, recommendation list, or model portfolio.
  • IBIT launched in 2024, so a 10-year return is unavailable.
