Sibanye Stillwater (JSE:SSW) shareholders have earned a 21% CAGR over the last five years

It hasn't been the best quarter for Sibanye Stillwater Limited (JSE:SSW) shareholders, since the share price has fallen 22% in that time. But that doesn't change the fact that the returns over the last five years have been very strong. Indeed, the share price is up an impressive 111% in that time. We think it's more important to dwell on the long term returns than the short term returns. Ultimately business performance will determine whether the stock price continues the positive long term trend. While the long term returns are impressive, we do have some sympathy for those who bought more recently, given the 56% drop, in the last year.

With that in mind, it's worth seeing if the company's underlying fundamentals have been the driver of long term performance, or if there are some discrepancies.
