How to use

For a single stock or index fund, CAGR shows the true yearly growth after all the ups and downs, better than remembering the best day.

Formula

CAGR = (EV / BV)1/n − 1

FAQ

Include dividends?

Add them to the ending value for a total-return CAGR.

Why not just (end−start)/start?

That is total return, not annualized; CAGR spreads it over the years.
