If you compare Trump to the S&P 500 over this time, he beats it if you don't account for dividends and loses to it if you do.

S&P 500 change during this time: 122.74 - 2043.94

Total gain: 1565% Annual gain: 8.62%

So without accounting for dividends (the S&P 500 price doesn't), Trump was about 1% better each year.

Just updated to include dividends / dividend-reinvestment on by default. Thanks!

Just added dividends / dividend reinvestment. This makes a huge difference if you go back in the 70s and earlier.
