Backtest copying William R. Keating this year
What copying William R. Keating would have returned
$10,000 invested on 2021-04-27, buying and selling the same stocks 3 days after each filing became public, ended at $17,797 on 2026-11-09. The same money in the S&P 500 (SPY) ended at $18,478.
That headline is diluted by cash: on average only 96% of the money was invested, because the portfolio holds a few small positions.
