Tools For Tracking The S&P 500 Through Time

Now that you've seen the chart, you might want to extract some of the data for certain periods from it. That's where our The S&P 500 At Your Fingertips tool comes into play, because not only can we tell you what the value of the S&P 500 or its predecessor indices was in any of those months, we can also tell you the index' earnings per share and dividends per share, as well as the rates of return that were realized between any two of months that you might select, both with and without considering the effects of inflation and dividend reinvestment! We update this tool monthly.
