The point of this page is that you can check us. If a number on a fund page disagrees with this description, the page is wrong and we want to know — see reporting an error.
Every fund page answers the same question: what did this fund actually do, using one window, one method, and the fund's own history. There are no ratings, no scores out of ten, and no forecast.
| Field | Definition |
|---|---|
| Total return | End value ÷ start value − 1 over the window, with dividends and distributions reinvested and the fund's own expense ratio already deducted. |
| Annualised (CAGR) | The constant yearly rate that turns the start value into the end value over the same window: (1 + total)1/years − 1. |
| Volatility | Annualised standard deviation of daily returns (√252 scaling). |
| Sharpe | Annualised return ÷ annualised volatility with a risk-free rate of zero. It is a ratio, not a grade — a higher number is not a recommendation. |
| Deepest drawdown | The largest peak-to-trough fall inside the window, with the two dates it happened between. Recovery time is shown where we can measure it. |
| Every calendar year | Year-by-year returns, computed from the same daily series — compounding them reproduces the total return (we test this). |
Unless you change it in the tool, the window is the last 10 years, or the fund's whole history if it is shorter than that. The data date is printed on every page, because a static page can go stale and you should be able to see exactly how old the numbers are.
Our market data starts in 2006. Where a page says “max”, it means “as far back as our data goes”, not “since inception” — for funds older than 2006 the first decade of their life is simply not in our data, and we would rather say that plainly than imply a longer record.
Prices, adjusted prices, dividends and splits come from Tiingo under a paid licence that permits public display, and the attribution appears in the footer of every page. We compute returns ourselves from that data: the numbers on this site are our calculation, not a value copied from a vendor screen. That is also why you will sometimes see a fund's return here differ slightly from another site — different dividend treatment, different window, or a vendor error somewhere. When two independent sources disagree we assume we might be the ones who are wrong until we have checked.
If a figure looks wrong, email support@seefund.app with the page URL and the fund. Data errors are the one bug class we treat as urgent, and corrections ship with the next daily rebuild.
