Help me out here with something I've been trying to figure out. How do I find out and compare the total returns for different stocks/funds in chart form or otherwise? It's tough to compare apples to apples without figuring in reinvested dividends (and cap gains for funds).
Don't the charts just graph prices? Or can you configure them to somehow figure in divs and cap gains?
This can really lead to misunderstandings when comparing performance, especially between high yielding div stocks vs. growth stocks (or funds).
Thanks

You're right, I did. But the dividends are included. Everything is in there, except the American Funds front end loads of 5.75%.
