Frequently asked questions
- Does CAGR show year-to-year volatility?
- No — it's a smoothed rate. Two investments with the same CAGR can have very different year-to-year swings. It only captures the start and end points.
- Is CAGR the same as annualised return?
- Yes for a buy-and-hold single investment. For portfolios with cash flows (contributions / withdrawals) you need the IRR or money-weighted return instead.
