FinanceData

Compare historical investment returns across countries since 1870 — stocks, bonds, gold, real estate.

About AssetVS

AssetVS lets you ask things like 'what would $1,000 invested in Turkish stocks in 1985 be worth today versus US bonds?' and get a sourced answer. Data goes back to 1870 for major economies and 1900-1950 for most others.

Originally built for a personal-finance writer who got tired of the same recycled US-only charts. Every datapoint cites a source (Bloomberg, World Bank, BIS, national stats offices).
