One girl leapfrogs over her friend's back.

 

S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) shares rose by 2.77% and provided total gross returns (including dividends) of 7% in FY26.

Thirteen ASX 200 shares doubled in value — or better — over the 12 months.

Three of them were ASX 200 gold miners, which benefited from an 18% rise in the gold price last year.

Four were lithium miners, which generated turbocharged earnings amid a 278% lift in the spodumene price and a 160% rise in the carbonate price over FY26.

While healthcare was the worst-performing sector, the ASX 200’s fastest rising stock came from it and blasted 1,786% higher!

Let’s check out this group of ASX 200 double baggers for FY26.
