How accurate are the stock calculator's forecasts?

The calculator provides an accurate mathematical model based on the data you enter. However, the actual market is volatile, so the result is an estimate and not a guarantee.

How is inflation taken into account in the calculation?

The tool calculates both nominal return (the amount in the account) and real return - the purchasing power of capital minus inflation.

Is the calculator suitable for ETFs and bonds?

Yes, the tool is universal. For bonds, indicate the coupon yield in the dividend field, and for ETFs, use the average historical return of the fund.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

🔹 How accurate are the forecasts?

The calculator gives a mathematically accurate model under given conditions. However, the market is unpredictable: real returns may differ due to crises or economic booms.

🔹 How is inflation taken into account?

In the advanced settings you can specify the inflation percentage. The system will show two results: Nominal (the number on the account) and Real (the purchasing power of this money).

🔹 Can bonds or ETFs be considered?

Yes. For bonds, in the “Dividends” field, enter the coupon income, and “Value growth” put 0% (if you hold it until maturity). For ETFs the principle is the same as for shares.
