1966-80 Large Cap 6.71% Small Cap 14.09% The price appreciation on the large cap (as represented by the S&P 500) during the above period was 2.55% annualized. That means the remaining 4.16% came from dividends. What are the dividend yields now as compared to 1966? It's a safe bet that they are a lot, lot smaller now than they were in 1966. Also another point regarding the small-cap segment. There is a wide disparity between the returns of the growth and the value parts. Surprisingly, it was small-cap value that did better (in fact, the best of all) in the period 1966-1980 while small-cap growth just crashed and burned, with annualized returns in the low single digits.
