ROLLING RETURNS, 1935 - 2010: FTSE 100 / FT 30
Rolling Period Last / Percentile Best / Average / Worst
1 Year 6% / 47th 129% / 7% / -55%
2 Year -7% / 22nd 106% / 14% / -69%
4 Year -12% / 13th 201% / 29% / -52%
8 Year 24% / 30th 283% / 70% / -48%
16 Year 70% / 20th 886% / 208% / -26%
How do you read the table?
For example: Rolling 2 year period returns are shown on the second row. In the
latest rolling 2 year period, (9/2008 - 8/2010), the FTSE 100 / FT 30 returned
-7%. That period scored in the 22nd percentile, meaning that it scored better
than 22% of all rolling 2 years periods since 1935. The Best rolling 2 Year
period since 1935 returned 106%. The worst returned -69%. The average
rolling 2 year period returned 14%.
What is a rolling period?
It's an overlapping period in a data base. For example: In the 2 year period
included in 2000 - 2001, there are 13 complete rolling 12 Month Periods. The
first is January, 2000 - December, 2000. The second is February, 2000 -
January, 2001. The third is March, 2000 - February, 2001 and so on. The last
complete rolling 12 Month Period in the 2000 - 2001 period is January, 2001 -
December, 2001.
How is this information useful?
Best and worst case scenarios may be estimated based on historical facts.
Also, the relationship of the periods is sometimes very helpful. Suppose that the
worst rolling 8 year period in the last 50 years returned -30%. Suppose also
that the latest 4 year period has returned -50%. Market psychology at this point
may be one of great fear or possibly even panic. If the market stays flat for 4
more years, it will break the 8 year decline record by a whopping 20%! (-50%
minus -30% equals -20%.) 50 plus year records are not often broken. That
provides reason to hope that the market will recover that 20% over the next 4
years. If it does, then the 8 year loss will be 30%. The longest index histories
are found in the DJIA, FTSE 100 with FT 30, DJTA, DJUA, S&P 500, & NASDAQ

Part 3
ROLLING RETURNS, 1935 - 2010: FTSE 100 / FT 30
Rolling Period Last / Percentile Best / Average / Worst
1 Year 31% / 91st 129% / 7% / -55%
2 Year -9% / 20th 106% / 14% / -69%
4 Year -8% / 17th 201% / 30% / -52%
8 Year 7% / 18th 283% / 70% / -48%
16 Year 78% / 22nd 886% / 209% / -26%
How do you read the table?
For example: Rolling 2 year period returns are shown on the second row. In the
latest rolling 2 year period, (5/2008 - 4/2010), the FTSE 100 / FT 30 returned
-9%. That period scored in the 20th percentile, meaning that it scored better
than 20% of all rolling 2 years periods since 1935. The Best rolling 2 Year
period since 1935 returned 106%. The worst returned -69%. The average
rolling 2 year period returned 14%.
What is a rolling period?
It's an overlapping period in a data base. For example: In the 2 year period
included in 2000 - 2001, there are 13 complete rolling 12 Month Periods. The
first is January, 2000 - December, 2000. The second is February, 2000 -
January, 2001. The third is March, 2000 - February, 2001 and so on. The last
complete rolling 12 Month Period in the 2000 - 2001 period is January, 2001 -
December, 2001.
How is this information useful?
Best and worst case scenarios may be estimated based on historical facts.
Also, the relationship of the periods is sometimes very helpful. Suppose that the
worst rolling 8 year period in the last 50 years returned -30%. Suppose also
that the latest 4 year period has returned -50%. Market psychology at this point
may be one of panic. If the market stays flat for 4 more years, it will break the 8
year decline record by a whopping 20%! (-50% minus -30% equals -20%.) 50
plus year records are not often broken. That provides reason to hope that the
market will recover that 20% over the next 4 years. If it does, then the 8 year
loss will be 30%. The longest index histories are found in the DJIA, FTSE 100
with FT 30, DJTA, DJUA, S&P 500, & NASDAQ 100

ROLLING RETURNS, 1935 - 2010: FTSE 100 / FT 30
Rolling Period Last / Percentile Best / Average / Worst
1 Year 6% / 47th 129% / 7% / -55%
2 Year -7% / 22nd 106% / 14% / -69%
4 Year -12% / 13th 201% / 29% / -52%
8 Year 24% / 30th 283% / 70% / -48%
16 Year 70% / 20th 886% / 208% / -26%
How do you read the table?
For example: Rolling 2 year period returns are shown on the second row. In the
latest rolling 2 year period, (9/2008 - 8/2010), the FTSE 100 / FT 30 returned
-7%. That period scored in the 22nd percentile, meaning that it scored better
than 22% of all rolling 2 years periods since 1935. The Best rolling 2 Year
period since 1935 returned 106%. The worst returned -69%. The average
rolling 2 year period returned 14%.
What is a rolling period?
It's an overlapping period in a data base. For example: In the 2 year period
included in 2000 - 2001, there are 13 complete rolling 12 Month Periods. The
first is January, 2000 - December, 2000. The second is February, 2000 -
January, 2001. The third is March, 2000 - February, 2001 and so on. The last
complete rolling 12 Month Period in the 2000 - 2001 period is January, 2001 -
December, 2001.
How is this information useful?
Best and worst case scenarios may be estimated based on historical facts.
Also, the relationship of the periods is sometimes very helpful. Suppose that the
worst rolling 8 year period in the last 50 years returned -30%. Suppose also
that the latest 4 year period has returned -50%. Market psychology at this point
may be one of great fear or possibly even panic. If the market stays flat for 4
more years, it will break the 8 year decline record by a whopping 20%! (-50%
minus -30% equals -20%.) 50 plus year records are not often broken. That
provides reason to hope that the market will recover that 20% over the next 4
years. If it does, then the 8 year loss will be 30%. The longest index histories
