Ten Bagger

Ten Bagger is an investment that returns 10x the original invested capital, a benchmark often used in venture capital to describe outlier winners that drive overall fund performance. In portfolio construction and underwriting, targeting potential Ten Bagger outcomes informs risk-taking and ownership goals, and a Ten Bagger can compensate for many losses in a power-law return distribution.
