Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Chubb Stock In The Last 15 Years

Chubb has outperformed the market over the past 90 days by 8.87%, generating a 11.34% return for its investors over the time period. Now, given this information, it may seem like price appreciation alone is the best way to have made money on this stock, that's not actually the case.

This is because Chubb has been paying out a regular cash dividend every year over the past 15 years. Investors who fail to account for dividends are missing a key ingredient in calculating a stock's profitability over time.
