Another Amazing Year!
2023 is officially over! Even with all of the volatility from high interest rates, high inflation and multiple wars, Verdia Investing still beat the market (S&P 500) by an impressive 45 points! The S&P 500 returned just +23% in 2023, compared to our +68%.
Our 5 year returns stands at +63%, while the S&P 500 trails far behind at +13%. 2023 also saw us double our Verdia Investing memberships!
2022
+83.12%
An amazing year.
While 2022 was great for Verdia Investing and our subscribers, it was disastrous for the overall markets. The S&P 500 had its worst year since 2008, due mainly to soaring inflation (+8.5%), rising federal interest rates (+4.5%), and a war in Ukraine that added significant volatility to global commodity prices and geo-political stability.
With all of this bad news for the market, 2022 was Verdia’s second best year on record with an overall return of +83.12%; second only to +111.60% in 2020. Also, 2022 was Verdia’s best year versus the market; we beat the S&P 500 by a whopping +103.07% points.
2021
+43.32%
Another solid year.
This year got off to a rough start. Our tech-heavy portfolio struggled in the first half. However, we are able to make up ground in the second half of the year. Verdia Investing finished the year ahead of all of the major indexes. We finished the year with an impressive +43.32%, while the S&P 500 finished at +26.6%, the Dow was at +18.7%, and the Nasdaq ended at +21.4%. While we don’t have a crystal ball, if history is any indicator we remain optimistic that Verdia will deliver once again in 2022.
2020
+111.60%
