A series of earthquakes were registered under Iceland's Katla volcano over the past couple of days. Judging by the depth of some of the earthquakes, fresh magma is making its way upward. There were more than 10 earthquakes in total, including M3.6 at 18:36 UTC on June 20, 2017, the strongest so far.
ââThinking that in a low-inflation environment is dreaming,â he said.â. Beyond that, the long-term data for the stock market points to that 7% number as well. For the period 1950 to 2009, if you adjust the S&P 500 for inflation and account for dividends, the average annual return comes out to exactly 7.0%. Check the data for yourself.
Several things, but among the most important things you will see is that through 2014, the S&P 500 had an average annual return of 10.12% and the 20 year average is 9.85%. Thatâs great. But I donât think itâs realistic and useful for long-term planning projections. In 2011, the 20 year average, returned 7.81% per year.hese are the great times. But there will also be times in which you are getting a -15% rate of return. The 5-year average for the S&P 500 from 1995-1999 was 28.56%. That is just freaking ridiculous.
