>SPY is up 100% since 2019 (pre covid crash).

Wait, what? I don't see SPY below 250 for all of 2019. A 100% gain would be 500, but it's 406 now. (Its 2020 nadir was ~228, but it's still not up 100% from that.)

Ah sh^t, you are right: I was looking at $258 and said 258 * 1.5 = ~400, and that is ~50%... but not 100%. Edited! Thanks!
