@jeje85 Glad I saw this comment! I was reading that like "damn are people really that upset over the talking M&M's?"

OP still hasn't fixed it though...

@taliajo If you reinvest dividends the return would be 216% for the S&P500, so your portfolio would be worth $474k

@siloam That makes sense to me. This is basically exposing you to consumer discretionary + consumer staples, ignoring enormous swaths of the US economy.

@siloam What if dividends would be reinvested on the each stock from above list?

 

[siloam]

@marlinkingsley Too much work

 

[marlinkingsley]

@siloam I understand. But difference between your number and OPs number is only 30k. With some if those dividends paying 4% and compound over time, I think we may not have such clear winner. But thanks for the data anyways.

@marlinkingsley I think I'll go with the index that holds 33x more companies to spread my risk around and still likely outperform
