Understanding CAGR

What is CAGR?

The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) is a useful measure of growth over multiple time periods. It describes the rate at which an investment would have grown if it grew at a steady rate.

CAGR Formula

CAGR = (Ending Value / Beginning Value)^{1/Number of Years} - 1

Why Use CAGR?

Smoothes out investment returns
Allows comparison between different investments
