  • UK Shares: £5,000 Invested Five Years Ago Worth Up to £23,000
    April 4, 2026, 3:49 AM EDT. A £5,000 investment in UK shares five years ago has yielded varied returns across indexes. The FTSE 100, comprising large-cap stocks, gained 78.2%, growing the investment to nearly £8,910. In contrast, the FTSE 250 and FTSE All-Share showed more modest returns of 14.1% and 65.7%, respectively. Smaller companies often depend more on domestic conditions, explaining their weaker performance amid a sluggish UK economy. However, stock picker success stories exist. Goodwin (LSE:GDWN), a small-cap firm, rose almost 300% despite a recent 48% sell-off after losing two contract tenders. Including dividends, returns approach 360%, turning £5,000 into about £23,000. Although market reaction may be severe, Goodwin's underlying order book remains strong, supported by defence and nuclear sectors. The stock traded at a high earnings premium before the setback.
