How Ferrari (RACE) compares with the whole market and its popular alternatives
Built by QuantCommons' quantitative engine, this page is about relative opportunity, not data on RACE alone. It places RACE (Ferrari N.V.) against 17 popular alternatives, its neighboring categories and the entire market of over 10,000 U.S.-listed stocks and ETFs, and surfaces what has done better on consistent outperformance, return for the risk taken, behavior in real market crashes and diversification. The result is a clearer view of where RACE stands in the market, and of the alternatives worth a closer look.
Period covered: RACE's full trading record, from October 2015 through September 2026. The crash tests reach back to 2000 using older funds and the S&P 500. All returns include reinvested dividends. Data as of October 20, 2026.

Key findings
- Right nowThe slide is RACE's own: it is 21.8% below its high, against 1.3% for the S&P 500. Not every peer went the same way. Over the past 3 months, HMC (Honda Motor) rose 21.6% and F (Ford Motor) fell 12.2%. Consistency ↓
- Stock or market?More than an industry move: RACE rose 7.7% over the past 3 months, against 1.0% for the consumer discretionary sector ETF XLY (State Street Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR ETF). The S&P 500 rose 3.9%. Its automobile peers did not move as one over the past 3 months: HMC (Honda Motor) rose 21.6%, while F (Ford Motor) fell 12.2%.
- Past 1 to 3 yearsThe long record (ahead of 92% of the stocks worth at least $300 million over 10 years) has not carried into the past 3 years (behind 58% of them). Over the past year, RACE rose 1.6% against 15.8% for the S&P 500 and 17.9% for the Nasdaq 100. The same gap shows up over 3 years (36.1% against 89.3%). Market rank ↓
- Long termRACE turned $10,000 into $81,100 over the past decade, against $42,100 in the S&P 500. RACE's 10-year return of 711% puts it ahead of 92% of the stocks worth at least $300 million with that much history. The S&P 500 returned 321%. Growth of $10,000 ↓
- In a crashIn the 2022 bear market, RACE held up better than TSLA (Tesla), GM and F; only HMC (Honda Motor) and VFS fell less. Even so, RACE fell further than the S&P 500 in two of the last three sell-offs, including the late-2018 sell-off (31.8% against 19.3%). Crash tests ↓
- DiversificationAgainst the S&P 500, RACE has a correlation of 0.48 over 5 years, more closely than 69% of stocks worth at least $300 million. Next to an index fund it is some diversification, but not a hedge. Over 10 years, RACE's beta versus the S&P 500 was 0.92: in the S&P 500's rising months it gained 1.0 times as much as the index, and in falling months it lost 56% as much. Market capture ↓

How much would $10,000 in RACE have grown?
This chart tracks a hypothetical $10,000 investment in RACE over the past 10 years, with dividends reinvested, alongside the same amount in the S&P 500, investments that ended ahead of RACE over the same span and RACE's popular alternatives, among those that traded for the entire period. A second view covers the past 5 years, the period the better options further down the page are judged on. It shows not only where each investment ended up but also how smooth or uneven the path was.
Note: RACE began trading on October 21, 2015, so the chart cannot reach back to the dot-com bust, the 2008 financial crisis or two other sell-offs. It covers the most recent 10 years of RACE's record, starting at the end of September 2016.
- $10,000 invested in RACE at the end of September 2016 would have grown to $81,004 by September 2026, more than the $41,286 it would have become in SPY, an S&P 500 fund.
- Five of the eight other investments on the chart ended ahead of RACE, and TSLA finished highest, at $260,889.

RACE against the whole market
Where RACE ranks among every stock and fund, and what across the market has done better.
How does RACE rank among all stocks?
This section ranks RACE on return, volatility, risk-adjusted return and worst decline against every stock worth at least $300 million with enough history. Where the comparisons with its popular alternatives show how RACE stacks up against its peers, these rankings show where it stands in the market as a whole.
- RACE's worst decline of the past 10 years ranks in the top 6% of the 2,187 stocks worth at least $300 million, where the top fell the least.
Ranked against U.S.-listed stocks worth at least $300M that have enough history for each measure, so the count changes from row to row; smaller stocks are left out. Lower volatility and smaller declines rank higher.

What has beaten RACE on both return and risk?
Each dot is an investment, placed by how much it earned a year over the past 5 years (higher is better) and how much its price swung, its volatility (further left is calmer). RACE sits where the dashed lines cross. Anything in the green box above and to the left earned more than RACE with smaller swings, a better trade-off over this period on both counts. Past results are no promise, but a name in the box is worth a closer look.
- 110 stocks and 75 ETFs worth at least $500 million sit in the green region: each earned more than RACE over the past 5 years with smaller price swings. That is 5% of the 3,633 screened.
- Among those with at least half RACE's swings, CAH has the best return for its risk: 42.1% a year at 24.7% volatility, 18% less than RACE's 30.0%, and a Sharpe ratio (return above cash per unit of volatility) of 1.55 against 0.57 for RACE.
- None of RACE's popular alternatives made it, but NEU (specialty chemicals) did: 21.0% a year at 26.8% volatility, 11% less than RACE's 30.0%.
Annual return is the annualized total return with dividends reinvested, and volatility the annualized swing in daily prices, both over 5 years. Labeled dots are the strongest picks from the table below and the names called out above, colored by how close they sit to RACE; faint dots are 92 more of the 185 in the green region (the strongest, one per fund family). 3,633 stocks and funds worth at least $500 million were screened.

How this works
The table below lists investments that beat RACE over the past 5 years on at least one of these measures: a higher annual return with lower volatility, a higher annual return at similar volatility, a similar return with lower volatility, a higher Sharpe ratio with a smaller worst decline, a higher total return in most periods from 3 months to 10 years, or smaller losses in recent market crashes. It checks RACE's popular alternatives first, then the rest of its own and neighboring categories, then every stock and fund worth at least $500 million, and shows the strongest few in each group. The full list of those with a higher return and lower volatility than RACE follows the table.
Annual return is the annualized total return with dividends reinvested. Annual return, volatility and the Sharpe ratio cover 5 years; the worst decline covers the past 10 years. Green marks a better figure than RACE's. "On the frontier" means no other option shown or tested earned more with less volatility. Funds that hold the same thing are shown once. Beyond the popular alternatives, nothing with more than 1.5× RACE's volatility counts as better.
These figures cover the past 5 years. Green marks a better figure than RACE's.

What these numbers mean for RACE
- Annual return
- RACE returned 13.3% a year over the past 5 years with dividends reinvested, against 12.7% a year for the S&P 500. At that pace, $10,000 became about $18,700. Annual return is the steady yearly rate that would produce the same total result, so investments held over the same span compare fairly. Guide: What is performance and return? →
- Volatility
- RACE's volatility over the past 5 years was 30.0%, 1.8 times the S&P 500's 17.1%. Volatility measures how widely returns swing around their average: in roughly two years out of three, RACE's return lands within 30.0% of its average, either way. The higher it is, the rougher the ride and the harder it is to hold through a slump. Guide: Understanding and measuring risk (volatility) →
- Sharpe ratio
- RACE's Sharpe ratio over the past 5 years was 0.57, against 0.79 for the S&P 500, so RACE earned less for each unit of risk than an index fund did. The Sharpe ratio is the return earned above cash for each unit of volatility: two investments with the same return are not equal if one got there with far bigger swings. Guide: Balancing reward with risk (Sharpe ratio) →
- Worst decline
- RACE's worst fall from a peak to a low over the past 10 years was 39.2%, against 33.7% for the S&P 500. Losses and gains are not symmetric: climbing back from a 39.2% fall takes a 64.5% gain. Guide: Market crash risk and tail risk →
- Correlation
- Over the past 5 years, RACE's monthly returns had a correlation of 0.48 with the S&P 500. Correlation runs from 1 (moving in lockstep) through 0 (unrelated) to −1 (moving in opposite directions). They often move together: some diversification next to an index fund, but not a cushion. In the table, the correlation column measures each option against RACE instead: the lower it is, the more that option would diversify a RACE holding. Guide: Correlation and diversification →

Risk and diversification
How RACE has fallen, how it held up in crashes beside the S&P 500 and its popular alternatives, and what moves independently of it.
What were RACE's worst declines?
A drawdown is the decline from a peak to the lowest point before a new high. This section presents RACE's five deepest drawdowns since it began trading in 2015, alongside the S&P 500's return over the same dates, and how long each took to recover. Together, these figures show how much an investor could have lost and how long it took to get back to even.
Note: RACE began trading on October 21, 2015, so this list cannot include the dot-com bust, the 2008 financial crisis or two other sell-offs. The crash tests on this page show how older funds and the S&P 500 fared through those years.
- In four of RACE's five worst declines, the S&P 500 held up better over the same dates.
- Not every decline was the market's doing: RACE fell 39.2% from July 2025 to March 2026, while the S&P 500 rose 2.7%.
- None of these declines kept RACE below its old high for long; the longest climb back took ten months.
Green means RACE fell less than the S&P 500 over the same dates. Based on daily closing prices with dividends reinvested.

How did RACE do in stock market crashes?
This section measures how far RACE, the S&P 500 and each alternative fell from peak to trough during every major market crash since 2000. A smaller decline means an investment held up better, and comparing results across crashes shows whether that resilience was consistent or a one-off.
Note: RACE began trading on October 21, 2015, so its row reads "Not yet trading" for the dot-com bust, the 2008 financial crisis or three other sell-offs. The older alternatives and the S&P 500 show how those crashes played out.
- Among its popular alternatives, ZGN held up best, falling less than RACE in all two crashes they both traded through.
- RACE began trading after the 2008 financial crisis, but six of its popular alternatives lived through it. The mildest fall among them was TM's 48.9%, against 55.2% for the S&P 500.
- RACE fell less than the S&P 500 in two of the five crashes it has traded through. The clearest case was the Covid crash, when RACE fell 27.8% and the S&P 500 fell 33.7%.
Newest crash first. Each figure is the fund's deepest fall within the crash window; green means a smaller fall than RACE.

How closely does RACE move with the S&P 500?
Upside capture measures how much of the S&P 500's gains an investment kept in the months the market rose, and downside capture how much of its losses it took in the months the market fell. An investment that captures more of the gains than the losses has compounded ahead of the market over time. This section compares RACE with its popular alternatives on both measures, and on beta (how strongly each has moved with the market), over the past 10 years.
- None of the ten popular alternatives with the same record had a higher capture ratio (upside capture divided by downside capture) than RACE's 1.79.
- Over the past 10 years, RACE captured 101% of the S&P 500's gains in rising months and 56% of its losses in falling months, with a beta of 0.92. Its share of the market's gains was larger than its share of the losses.
Monthly total returns over the past 10 years, measured against SPY. 100% capture or a beta of 1.00 means moving in line with the S&P 500. Green marks a better figure than RACE's: more upside, less downside or a higher capture ratio. Sorted by capture ratio.

What diversifies RACE?
Correlation measures how closely two investments move together, on a scale from 1 (in lockstep) through 0 (unrelated) to -1 (in opposite directions). This section lists large ETFs and stocks whose returns have had a low correlation with RACE's. Because such investments tend not to fall at the same time, pairing RACE with them can reduce a portfolio's overall swings.
- Moving a fifth of the money in RACE into XLE would have cut the portfolio's volatility by 18% over the past 5 years and raised its annual return (+14.3% for RACE alone, +17.4% for the mix).
- FIX made money in three of the three calendar years in which RACE lost money.
- Among large ETFs, LVHI, DXJ and EMLP have moved largely independently of RACE over the past 5 years, with correlations of 0.38 or lower, and each still earned a positive 5-year return.
Only ETFs with at least $1.0B in assets and stocks worth at least $10B, with a correlation below 0.5 over the past 5 years and a positive return, are included, ranked by Sharpe ratio; funds that hold the same thing are shown once. The year columns are the years in which RACE lost money. The last two columns show a portfolio that is 80% RACE and 20% the other investment, rebalanced monthly.

Common questions
What was RACE's worst drawdown?
RACE's deepest decline since it began trading in 2015 was 43.6%, from October 2015 to February 2016. It took ten months from the low to climb back to its old high. Because RACE launched in October 2015, that record does not include the dot-com bust, the 2008 financial crisis or two other sell-offs.
What were RACE's best and worst years?
Over ten full calendar years, RACE's best year was 2017, when it returned 80.3%. Its worst was 2022, with a return of -16.7%.
Is there a better investment than RACE?
Looking beyond its popular alternatives, NEU (specialty chemicals) earned more than RACE with less volatility over the past 5 years: 21.0% a year at 26.8% volatility, against 13.3% a year at 30.0%. Across the whole market, 185 of the 3,633 stocks and funds worth at least $500 million earned more than RACE with less volatility over the past 5 years, among them AAPL, WMT and JPM.
Is RACE more volatile than the S&P 500?
Yes. RACE's volatility over the past 5 years was 30.0%, 1.8 times the S&P 500's 17.1%. Volatility measures how widely returns swing around their average: in roughly two years out of three, RACE's return lands within 30.0% of its average, either way. The higher it is, the rougher the ride and the harder it is to hold through a slump.
What is RACE's Sharpe ratio?
RACE's Sharpe ratio over the past 5 years was 0.57, against 0.79 for the S&P 500, so RACE earned less for each unit of risk than an index fund did. The Sharpe ratio is the return earned above cash for each unit of volatility: two investments with the same return are not equal if one got there with far bigger swings.
How correlated is RACE with the S&P 500?
Over the past 5 years, RACE's monthly returns had a correlation of 0.48 with the S&P 500. Correlation runs from 1 (moving in lockstep) through 0 (unrelated) to −1 (moving in opposite directions). They often move together: some diversification next to an index fund, but not a cushion. In the table, the correlation column measures each option against RACE instead: the lower it is, the more that option would diversify a RACE holding.
What are the best alternatives to RACE?
None of the 17 popular alternatives we compared outperformed RACE in at least 3 of 5 short-term and 2 of 3 long-term timeframes, which says more about RACE's strength than about its alternatives.
Did RACE outperform the S&P 500?
RACE finished ahead of the S&P 500 (SPY) in seven of ten full calendar years. In 2025, it returned -12.3%, against +17.7% for the index.
How did RACE do in stock market crashes?
RACE fell less than the S&P 500 (SPY) in two of the five major crashes it has traded through, and further in two. The clearest case was the Covid crash, when RACE fell 27.8% and the S&P 500 fell 33.7%.
What diversifies RACE?
These had a low correlation with RACE over the past 5 years and still earned a positive 5-year return: among large ETFs, LVHI (correlation 0.38), DXJ (correlation 0.31) and EMLP (correlation 0.29); among large stocks, CAH (correlation 0.23), CLS (correlation 0.04) and FIX (correlation 0.29). A correlation near zero means the two have moved largely independently.
How we measure
- Short-term periods are 1M, 3M, 6M, YTD, 1Y; long-term periods are 3Y, 5Y, 10Y. An investment outperformed in a period when its total return, with dividends reinvested, was higher than RACE's. Returns within 0.5 points or 3% of RACE's, whichever is larger, count as a tie.
- "Qualified" means outperforming in at least 3 of 5 short-term periods and 2 of 3 long-term periods. "All-weather" means outperforming in every long-term period and all but one short-term period.
- Popular alternatives are the funds and stocks most often compared with this one. We include only those that trade today, are not leveraged or inverse, and hold at least $200 million.
- Volatility is the annualized standard deviation of daily returns over 5 years, a measure of how much the price typically swings in a year. The Sharpe ratio is the return above cash for each unit of that volatility.
- A decline, or drawdown, runs from a peak to the lowest close before the next high. The worst decline ever uses all the price history we have; comparisons between funds use the past 10 years so that younger funds are judged on the same stretch.
- Sector overlap is the share of assets two funds hold in the same sectors. Correlation and the mixed-portfolio figures use monthly returns.
- Upside and downside capture follow Morningstar's definition: the compound monthly return in the months the S&P 500 rose (or fell), divided by the S&P 500's compound return in those months. Beta measures how strongly monthly returns have moved with the S&P 500. All three use the same window for every investment.
- Figures are computed from daily adjusted prices and update after each trading day. Past performance does not predict future results.
