A year of buying CVS
Over the last 93 days CVS closed between $80.44 (November 4, 2026) and $99.40 (August 5, 2026). One hundred dollars put in at the low would be worth $105 today; at the high, $85. The current price $84.15 is above 2 of those 93 daily closes, so a purchase on a random day of that stretch would be in profit 2% of the time — fees aside.
A typical day moves CVS by 5.3%: a $1,000 position swings about $53 a day.
