Bristol-Myers Squibb is engaged in the discovery, development, licensing, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and sale of biopharmaceutical products on a global basis. Co.'s pharmaceutical products include chemically-synthesized or small molecule drugs, products produced from biological processes, called biologics and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapies. Co.'s primary product includes Eliquis® - Eliquis (apixaban), which is an oral Factor Xa inhibitor indicated for the reduction in risk of stroke/systemic embolism in non-valvular atrial fibrillation and for the treatment of DVT/PE and reduction in risk of recurrence following initial therapy. The Bristol-Myers Squibb YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the Bristol-Myers Squibb YTD return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the total return for a given investment year-to-date for the current calendar year
(up to the end of prior trading session). Arguably, choosing the current calendar year for a measurement
period is on the one hand completely arbitrary, but on the other hand a year-to-date look can be extremely
useful in the context of our country's tax system which taxes gains and income on a calendar year basis.
Thus, researching Year-To-Date Returns is good practice for investors — whether Bristol-Myers Squibb YTD return or other benchmarks/peers
— and when doing so it is also important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's YTD return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon. Our website aims to empower investors
by performing the BMY YTD return calculation (with any dividends reinvested as applicable), and to provide a
coverage universe of many stocks and ETFs to be able to compare YTD returns.
