Every Holding Period

CAMS rolling returns by holding period

A rolling window is every possible start date, not one. A five-year window starting in January is a different investment from one starting in February, and over twenty years there are a couple of hundred of them. What follows is the full spread of what each holding period actually produced.

1-year rolling returns

55.9% of windows made money

Across 59 separate 1-year holding periods, the median returned 4.6% a year. The worst lost 38.7% a year and the best made 135.7%.

3-year rolling returns

100.0% of windows made money

Across 35 separate 3-year holding periods, the median returned 18.3% a year. Not one of them ended in a loss — the weakest still compounded at 5.4% a year.

Windows step forward one month at a time and are measured on month-end adjusted closing prices, so dividends are treated as reinvested. Overlapping windows share months by construction — that is what makes the spread a description of this stock's history rather than a sample of independent trials.

Against The Index

How often CAMS beat the Nifty 50

Beating an index once is a result. Beating it across most of the periods an investor could have picked is a pattern. Over 3-year windows, CAMS finished ahead of the Nifty 50 in 85.7% of the 35 periods both series cover.

1-year windows

Ahead in 50.9% of 59 periods.

3-year windows

Ahead in 85.7% of 35 periods.

Each window is compared against the index over the identical calendar months, on the same adjusted basis — not against an assumed rate of return.

How This Is Calculated

Reading these figures properly

Overlapping by design

Windows step forward one month at a time, so they share most of their months with each other. That is what makes this a description of CAMS's actual history rather than a set of independent trials — and why the spread should not be read as a probability.

Month-end, total return

Measured on month-end closing prices adjusted for dividends and splits, so dividends count as reinvested. A window that opened or closed mid-month would differ a little in either direction.

Survivors only

CAMSis in today's Nifty 500 universe. Companies that delisted or collapsed are not on this site at all, so the worst outcome shown here is the worst among the survivors.

HELP CENTER

CAMS rolling returns — common questions

Everything you need to know about this page and the data presented.

What are CAMS rolling returns?
+

Over 3 years, Computer Age Management Services Ltd. has been through 35 separate 3 years holding periods — one starting every month. The median returned 18.3% a year, the worst 5.4% and the best 26.6%. A rolling return measures every possible start date instead of one, which is why it answers a question a single headline CAGR cannot: how much the outcome depended on when you happened to buy.

Has CAMS ever lost money over 3 years?
+

No — not in any of the 35 3 years periods the record covers. The weakest of them still compounded at 5.4% a year. That is a statement about the past, not a guarantee about any future 3 years, and it is measured only over the years Computer Age Management Services Ltd. has been listed.

Does holding CAMS for longer reduce the risk?
+

On this record, yes. 1 year outcomes ranged from -38.7% to 135.7% a year — a spread of 174.4%. 3 years outcomes ranged from 5.4% to 26.6%, a spread of 21.2%. Longer holding periods narrowed the range of results, which is the usual pattern and the reason this page publishes every window rather than one. Narrowing the range is not the same as removing the risk.

How often has CAMS beaten Nifty 50 over 3 years?
+

In 85.7% of the 35 3 years periods both series cover. Each window is compared against the index over the identical months, not against an assumed index return, so the comparison is a like-for-like record rather than a model.

How are rolling returns calculated here?
+

Windows step forward one month at a time on month-end closing prices adjusted for dividends and stock splits, so dividends are treated as reinvested. A window length is only published once there are at least twelve complete windows behind it — fewer than that describes an anecdote, not a distribution. Overlapping windows share months by construction, which is what makes this a description of the actual history of Computer Age Management Services Ltd. rather than a sample of independent trials. Companies that delisted are not on this site at all, a survivorship bias worth holding in mind.

Is CAMS a safe long-term investment?
+

That is not a question this page answers, and we do not make recommendations. What it can show you is the full range of what every holding period in the listed history of Computer Age Management Services Ltd. actually produced — including the worst ones, which most performance figures leave out. Those are records of what happened, not forecasts. A stock that never had a losing decade may still have one, and holding a single company is a materially different risk from holding an index.
