Rolling returns

Window	Avg	Median	Min	Max	% Pos	% >12
1Y	7.31	7.46	3.98	10.19	100%	0%
3Y	7.38	7.34	6.80	7.85	100%	0%

Avg/Median = the typical outcome; Min/Max = worst and best; % Pos = how often the window ended positive; % >12 = how often it beat 12% a year. Higher consistency means timing mattered less.
