A year of buying VST
Over the last 95 days VST closed between $111.90 (November 5, 2026) and $166.70 (October 7, 2026). One hundred dollars put in at the low would be worth $106 today; at the high, $71. The current price $118.17 is above 1 of those 95 daily closes, so a purchase on a random day of that stretch would be in profit 1% of the time — fees aside.
A typical day moves VST by 4.9%: a $1,000 position swings about $49 a day.
