I modified my original US stock prices graph to compare the growth rate of real growth (adjusted for inflation) in S&P Composite Index with the nominal price growth.

Annualized growth rate of since 1871:
Nominal stock price return= 4.0%
Real stock price return = 1.9%

Another version of my stock graph. Instead of the nominal price index from yesterday’s post, I am comparing real price index to the real total return (price change with dividends reinvested) since 1871. Both series are adjusted for inflation.

Annualized growth rate of since 1871:
Real total return with dividends reinvested = 6.2%
Real stock price return = 1.9%
