I'm finally getting around to putting together my (personal) financial summary for last year. As reference information, I'd like to include the performance numbers for the typical indices (NASDAQ, S&P 500, DOW, etc...) for 2005. I've looked all over and can't seem to find this information anywhere. I can look at the return numbers for an index fund but they only list a rolling average up to present (not for a calendar year).
I have found a few charts but prefer some solid numbers.
Chavez - That particular page doesn't show returns for a calendar year (only YTD, past 12 months, ...). I do subscribe to Morningstar but have never found this elusive information on their site. I'd think there would be a number of people who'd want to compare their portfolio performance to one of these indices for the calendar year.
fish6942, well, if you go to S&P's website, you can get the S&P return information for a particular date. So, if you plugged in 31-DEC-2005, you will get the S&P # for that date, as well as YTD returns broken down about two dozen ways.
