ETF Performance Analytics Tool — Deep ETF Analysis All On One Page

The ETF Performance Analytics Tool is designed for investors who want serious, institutional-style performance analysis without unnecessary complexity. It replaces many of the workflows investors previously relied on tools like Portfolio Visualizer for — but does so faster, cleaner, and entirely on one page.

With this tool, you can instantly analyze and compare up to six ETFs at a time using standardized monthly return data. There are no calendars to fill out and no repeated page refreshes. Simply enter your tickers separated by commas, click build, and the full analysis appears immediately.

The tool makes it easy to evaluate both absolute and risk-adjusted performance, helping you understand not just how an ETF performed, but how it behaved through different market environments. A simple toggle allows you to compare ETFs using either a common history or their full available history, ensuring fair and intuitive comparisons.

What You Can Analyze Instantly

  • Growth of $10,000 over time
  • Rolling return periods
  • Annual and monthly returns dating back to 2000
  • Maximum drawdowns and drawdown depth
  • Risk and downside-risk adjusted metrics
  • Seasonality patterns using the calendar and heatmap views

The calendar and heatmap views are particularly useful for identifying consistency, volatility, and seasonal return patterns that aren’t visible from long-term performance numbers alone. These views help investors spot periods of strength, weakness, and recurring trends across different ETFs.

Why it matters: Two ETFs with similar long-term returns can have very different drawdowns, volatility profiles, and seasonal behavior. This tool helps surface those differences clearly and efficiently.
