What's a good ROI percentage?

It varies by industry and risk. Stock market averages ~10% annually. Real estate might target 15-20%. High-risk investments need higher returns. Compare ROI against alternatives and inflation (typically 2-3%).

What's the difference between ROI and annualized ROI?

ROI is total return regardless of time. Annualized ROI factors in the investment period, showing average yearly return. Annualized ROI is better for comparing investments held for different durations.
