3 Year Rolling CAGR

3 year rolling CAGR indicates the latest CAGR at any given point in the timeframe provided in the chart. So, in Apr 2023, if the 3 year rolling CAGR is 40%, it means that the one would have experienced a CAGR of 40% if you stayed invested in the 3 year period culminating in Apr 2023 (Apr 2020 to Apr 2023).

The strategy trailed its benchmark till about Apr 2021 post which there was no looking back. The gap has widened considerably and the current 3 year CAGR stands at a superb 37% compared to only 17% on CNX 200.

4 Year Rolling CAGR

The 4 year rolling CAGR paints a much better picture to also illustrate the importance of taking a long term view along with the strategy’s superior outperformance.

The 4 year CAGR by end of Mar 2020 is at the lowest point owing to the COVID crash that coincided around that time but the performance started to improve dramatically post COVID and the gap has continuously widened.

The current 4 year CAGR is 38.5% on the HNI Capital Compounder compared to only 20% on the benchmark, the CNX 200 index.
