Rolling returns

Window	Avg	Median	Min	Max	% Pos	% >12
1Y	6.91	6.85	-5.94	24.18	94%	14%

Each row takes every possible start date in the fund's history and computes the annualised return (CAGR) over that window. 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.
