The S&P 500 is a market capitalization-weighted index of the 500 leading publicly traded companies in the U.S. The index is operated by Standard & Poor's Dow Jones Indices, which is a division of S&P Global.

During the first decade after its introductionin 1957, and reflecting the economic expansion in the U.S after World War II, the value of the index rose to slightly over 800.From 1969 to 1981, the index gradually declined to fall under 360 as a sign of high inflation.During the 2008 financial crisis and the Great Recession, the S&P 500 fell 56.8% from October 2007 to March 2009.The S&P bounced back from the crisis and continued its 10-year bull runfrom 2009 to 2019 to climb 330%.Inflation is one of the major problems for an investor hoping to recreate that 10.13% average return regularly.
