Year-End 2005 Shareholder Scorecard

The Wall Street Journal published a “special report” yesterday listing the top and bottom 50 performers (total return to shareholders) over the last one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods. I love studying reports like these, especially the five- and ten-year data, and was thrilled to see that the WSJ even provided a downloadable Excel file of all the lists.

The irony here is that Dow Jones, publisher of the Wall Street Journal, is on the top 50 list of worst performers over the last 10 years, with an average annual return (including dividends) of 1.0%.

    The WSJ is available only to subscribers so good netiquette prevents me from linking to it. The report is in the Monday, February 27, 2006 edition.
