What it means
A single annualised rate
CAGR stands for Compound Annual Growth Rate. It tells you what the investment grew by each year on average over the selected period, smoothing out year-to-year volatility.
It is useful for comparing investments that had different return patterns over time, even if they were not consistent every year.
When to use
Use it for comparison
- Compare the performance of mutual funds, stocks, or portfolios over time.
- Estimate how fast an investment has grown on an average annual basis.
- Remember that CAGR is a historical measure and does not guarantee future returns.
