If You Invested $100 In Bitcoin, Ethereum Classic, Alphabet, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon And Tesla 5 Years Ago, Here's How Much You'd Have Now

Investors who placed their hard-earned cash into major U.S. indices have enjoyed respectable returns over the past five years. In fact, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (NASDAQ:SPY), Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1 (NASDAQ:QQQ) and SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust (NASDAQ:DIA) returned 69.01%, 122.12% and 51.12% respectively.

As good as investors in the major U.S. indices have had it over the past five years, a number of the world’s most popular cryptocurrencies and tech stocks have performed that much better. Tech bulls that bought top-performers during summer 2017 and held on for the long-term, despite the 2020 stock market crash and recent volatility, have been treated to epic returns on their investment.
