Inflation-Adjusted iShares Core S&P Mid-Cap ETF (IJH)

The iShares Core S&P Mid-Cap ETF (IJH) tracks the S&P MidCap 400 Index, providing exposure to a broad range of mid-sized US companies.

Nominal returns can be misleading without considering the effects of inflation. This page adjusts IJH's historical prices for inflation with the US Consumer Price Index to reveal its true performance. Use the charts and tables on this page to compare nominal versus inflation-adjusted figures and understand the ETF's real long-term growth.

Nominal prices are adjusted for stock splits and assume reinvestment of any dividends to reflect total return. Inflation-adjusted prices use June 2025 as the baseline (latest available CPI).

The current value of the iShares Core S&P Mid-Cap ETF is 62.52 (as of the close of Jul 15, 2025), 7.25% lower than the all-time high of 67.41 (Nov 25, 2024).

Since May 26, 2000, the inflation-adjusted total return for the ETF has been 401.26%, which is equivalent to an annual growth rate of 6.62%.

In nominal values, the total return since this date has been 842.78%, or an annualized rate of 9.34%.

Ishares Core S&P Mid-Cap Etf: Average Annualized Returns

Annualized returns show the average rate of growth per year, making it easier to compare performance across different time periods. While nominal returns indicate the headline growth, adjusting for inflation reveals the actual change in purchasing power.

This table presents both nominal and inflation-adjusted average annual returns for the iShares Core S&P Mid-Cap over various trailing periods ending June 30, 2025, offering a clearer view of long-term, real investment performance.

Period	Avg. Annual Return (Inflation-Adjusted)	Avg. Annual Return (Nominal)
Last 1 year	4.33%	7.11%
Last 3 years	9.21%	12.34%
Last 5 years	8.16%	13.11%
Last 10 years	5.81%	9.05%
Last 20 years	6.61%	9.34%

Real Returns of Investing in the iShares Core S&P Mid-Cap

The chart and table below show the nominal and inflation-adjusted value of a hypothetical $100 investment over various long-term historical periods, ending in June 2025.

The inflation-adjusted line, in green, represents the real increase in purchasing power for the initial investment. Observe the gap between both lines, which illustrates the cumulative effect of inflation over time.

Even over just five years, inflation takes a noticeable bite out of investments. Investing $100 in the iShares Core S&P Mid-Cap five years ago yielded an 83.23% nominal gain, but the real return (the actual increase in buying power) was 46.94%.

As investment periods get longer, the difference between reported nominal returns and the inflation-adjusted gains usually becomes much greater due to the compounding effect of inflation over time.

Investment Period	What $100 Grew To (Nominal)	Total Nominal Return (%)	Total Inflation-Adjusted Return (%)
Last 5 years Feb 2020 - Jun 2025	$183.23	83.23%	46.94%
Last 10 years Feb 2015 - Jun 2025	$238.54	138.54%	73.58%
