Question
How do I calculate how well my stocks have been doing? Thanks.
There are several ways, from tracking their gain over the course of a year, to comparing their performance against other stocks in the same sector, an index of that sector or the whole market.
Could I ask what your portfolio contains and I'll be able to make a quick assessment of which method would be best
