Bought at the close on January 3, 1995, dividends put back in, no costs and no tax. Dividends are counted to the end of 2024; from 2025 on our prices are adjusted for splits only, so dividends paid since then are left out.

French data library), which runs to July 31, 2026. Our stock prices run to September 23, 2026.
