Understanding CAGR
What is CAGR?
CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) represents the mean annual growth rate of an investment over a specified time period. It smooths out the volatility of year-over-year returns to give you a single annual growth rate.

- Average return is simple arithmetic mean
- CAGR better represents actual growth
