Growth of $10,000

The Growth of $10,000 is a key factor to consider when evaluating the performance of an investment. Hypothetical results may differ from actual performance.
A $10,000 investment can grow significantly over time, but it's essential to understand that these results are hypothetical and intended for illustrative purposes only. This means they don't represent actual performance.
Hypothetical growth charts like the one mentioned reflect a hypothetical $10,000 investment and assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Fund expenses are also deducted from these hypothetical returns.
The simulated results don't involve financial risk, but they can't account for the impact of certain market risks like lack of liquidity. This is because trades haven't actually been executed.
As a result, there are frequently differences between simulated performance results and actual results. This is why it's crucial to understand the limitations of hypothetical performance data.
