XOM was one of the top performers in the DJIA 30 stocks. However, to put things into perspective, $42 in 2002 bought 3 barrels of crude oil, whereas today, the $84 buys less than one barrel!
Stocks are only one type of investment. Bonds, real estate (not the granite counter top kind, but the income generating kind), commodity, as well as yourself and your own business are other types of investment. A little over a decade ago, stocks were the most loved class of investment, whereas commodities were the most hated (oil hovering around $10/bbl). 12 years later, stocks is still lower (recovering after being cut in half, twice, possibly more wild rides to come before 2015), whereas oil has gone up more than 10x. What's the most hated class of investment vehicle today?
