Ben Carlson, director of institutional asset management, CFA, author, investor at Ritholtz Wealth Management, highlights the S&P 500's annual returns for each year from 2020 through 2026.
He points out that annualized returns for the S&P 500 over the 2020s have reached 15.7 percent, with none of the years being described as boring. The listed results range from a $-18.2$ percent drop in 2022 to gains above $28$ percent in 2021 and $26.2$ percent in 2023, indicating consistent market volatility and strong positive performance overall.
Carlson has tracked related performance shifts throughout the year. In March, he noted that the S&P 493 outpaced both the S&P 500 and the Magnificent 7 in 2024. Earlier, he reported that South Korea outperformed the S&P 500 over the past decade, with recent gains driving the result. His research continues to spotlight major equity benchmarks and sector moves.
