« Ouch! | Main | Satuday Night Live Takes a Look at the Banking Crisis » March 6, 2009 43 Years Of No Real GainsAdjusting for inflation, the Dow is basically where it was in 1966.
This doesn't include dividends. From February 9, 1966 to yesterday’s close, the Dow gained 562.7%. The CPI from February 1966 to January 2009 (we'll get February's report on March 18) rose 559.8%. That works out to a real gain of 43 basis points stretched out over 43 years. Oh...and we're down today. Posted by edelfenbein at March 6, 2009 12:57 PM |
