But vanguard s&p500 is up like 25% for the last year, what are you talking about?

It could be the selection of stocks vanguard chose to be part of that ETF that are duds I guess :/

Edit: the below is correct! I got so fed up I stopped looking for a few months. Everything is up!

No, if it's the s&p500 ETF (VOO in the usa, VUSA in UK) it has the stocks from the s&p500, they didn't choose anything. It's just the 500 biggest companies in the US (roughly). Either you don't have that, or something else is going very wrong.

What are the actual ticker symbols of your investments? Agree with the other user that something isn't adding up here. You're likely not invested in what you think you are
