Title: Top performing shares(10 years)
Post by: erwintwr on November 22, 2014, 06:34:58 pm
Hi guys

since most of the JSE statistics is available in a few online platforms, i was hoping someone could point me to the correct tool.

I am looking to find the top 10/20 shares as measured over the last 10 years, but looking at the number of shares that is currently available it seems a daunting task to randomly select shares and compare them with each other.

i could obviously look at international markets as well (probably via PSG online), but for now i will stick with SA markets is possible.

Unfortunately my google-skills on this is not the very best (sometimes a top performing article is released for a specific year, but i was hoping that a more accurate option is available.


hope someone can help

thx

Google, not successful. Read Moneyweb, they may have something. Will keep an eye out.

I was busy this weekend. Used some of the threads listed here with regards to Long term portfolio's and picked some shares from there.
After that i went to google to obtain the 10 year , 9 year, 8 year,7 year etc up to 1 year average performance of each, and then plotted them.

interesting to see how a share starts to "destabilize" once the average number of years goes less.
but still an interesting picture. Hope this helps someone else as well :)

Very interesting. Especially the jump of almost all companies between the 7 and 6 year range,
coinciding with the recovery of the market, even though the previous 3 to 4 year was relatively flat.
