SXR8 — iShares Core S&P 500 UCITS ETF USD (Acc)
iShares Core S&P 500 UCITS ETF USD (Acc): what it is, what it costs, and what its EUR line on Xetra actually returned — dividends reinvested.
Every figure here is in euros — what you'd actually pocket buying on Xetra. Fund fact sheets usually headline returns in US dollars, which can look very different: in 2025 a world tracker rose about 23% in dollars but only about 9% in euros, because the euro gained roughly 13% against the dollar. Here's the full story, year by year.
