Best Performing Stocks Since IPO

Each card shows two numbers. The percentage is the total return since the IPO; the line below it — for example 17,113× invested — is the capital multiple: how many times a single dollar invested at the IPO price would be worth today, dividends reinvested. The two figures are equivalent: a multiple of N× is the same as a return of (N − 1) × 100%.

The “×” phrasing comes from legendary Fidelity Magellan manager Peter Lynch, who in his 1989 book One Up On Wall Street coined the term tenbagger for a stock that returns ten times the money invested. We follow the same convention here and round the multiple down at every precision: a stock is only labelled a 17,113-bagger once it has actually crossed that line.
