Past returns don't repeat. What does the price assume now?

These tables show what already happened. A buyer today gets the next ten years, and the price already reflects what the market expects. The reverse DCF calculator shows the growth today's price implies, so you can judge whether it is realistic.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best month for Omnicom?

November, with an average return of +4.0% since 2000. It rose in 69% of Novembers (26 years).

What is the worst month for Omnicom?

June, averaging −2.4% and rising in 48% of years.

Is it a good idea to time purchases by month?

Usually not. Each month has only about 26 observations here, one big year can swing an average, and the gaps between months are small next to a single year's range. Seasonality is a curiosity, not a trading signal.

How are the monthly returns calculated?

Each month's return runs from the previous month-end close to that month's close, using prices adjusted for splits and dividends. The current, unfinished month is left out.

The math is easy. The macro is hard.

Omnicom shows the arithmetic. Members get the monthly call that decides which inputs matter, plus written breakpoints when the facts move. $39/month or $249/year.
