Could $500 a month in TDW grow toward $60K? 
From a strong five-year rally to a recent 9% drop, TDW has a story worth exploring.
Hit play and uncover the numbers, the risks, and the potential!
Imagine setting aside $500 a month for $TDW for five years, buying a fixed dollar amount on a schedule, a method called dollar-cost averaging. In our example the buy happens on the first trading day on or after the 9th of each month, from Nov 9, 2021 through Oct 9, 2026: 60 buys, $30,000 in total.
TDW closed at $11.87 on Nov 2, 2021 and at $79.04 on Nov 2, 2026, a price gain of about 565.9%, or roughly 46.1% a year compounded (the steady yearly rate that would give the same total gain). In that example the $30,000 would have been worth about $60,600 at the Nov 2, 2026 close (about 2.02 times the money put in), and a single $10,000 invested on Nov 2, 2021 would have become about $66,590. Price only: no dividends, fees or taxes, and these are examples, not forecasts.
The highest close of the past 52 weeks was $100.61 on Sep 2, 2026, so the Nov 2, 2026 close sat about 21.4% below it. The lowest close of the five years was $10.36 on Dec 16, 2021, about 12.7% below the $11.87 start.

Caution: past pace rarely continues. TDW's Aug 3, 2026 release for the quarter ended Jun 30, 2026 showed revenue up 4.9% sequentially to $342.3 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $133.8 million, with an average day rate increase of 2.9%. TDW closed at $79.04 on Nov 2, 2026, down 9.49% that day, a reminder that prices can pause even when operational results remain solid. Q3 results are expected around Nov 9 (date not yet confirmed).
