Damn if I can’t pull up this info off the internet.
I’m looking for a simple chart that shows the monthly % of change for the S&P 500 index for the past year.
Something as simple as Jan.06 +5.5, Feb.06 -3.7, Mar.06 +2.3
I can’t seem to find this info.
“Browse by Index” for S&P 500 (left side of page)
Choose “Total Return” in dropdown box.
Choose your format.
TADA!
Slight error: what you want is historical returns, at the bottom of the page. Sorry.
