The Hurricane chart plots the full range of a meandering portfolio much like a weather map tracking potential storm paths.  Think of it as beginning your portfolio in every historical year at once and watching how they all unfolded.  This tool is equally useful for projecting portfolio growth as it is for mapping retirement scenarios.

UPDATE: Please note that the Hurricane calculator has been renamed the Portfolio Growth calculator.  It’s the exact same tool with a more descriptive name.
