The Periodic Table of Investments demonstrates the importance of diversification. The chart shows annual returns for the last 20 years for different asset classes. The Asset Classes are ranked by return each year going from the best at the top of the chart to the worst. Clicking on the index name on the left hand side will highlight the returns for that index for each year. There is also a navigation bar on the right.
The first section shows 15 different Equity Indices comparing Value and Growth returns. The second section shows 11 different Bond Indices as well as REITs.
