Americold Realty Trust is a real estate investment trust focused on the ownership, operation, acquisition and development of temperature-controlled warehouses. Co. manages its business through three primary business segments: warehouse, which provides temperature-controlled warehouse storage and related handling and other warehouse services; third-party managed, which manages warehouses on behalf of third parties and provides warehouse management services to food retailers and manufacturers in customer-owned facilities; and transportation, which brokers and manages transportation of frozen and perishable food and other products for its customers. The COLD YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the COLD 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 COLD 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 COLD 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.
