Deere & Co. operates several segments, including: Production and Precision Agriculture, which defines, develops, and delivers global equipment and technology solutions for growers of crops like large grains (such as corn and soy), small grains (such as wheat, oats, and barley), cotton, and sugarcane; Small Agriculture and Turf, which defines, develops, and delivers global equipment and technology solutions for dairy and livestock producers, crop producers, and turf and utility customers; and Construction and Forestry, which defines, develops, and delivers a range of machines and technology solutions organized along the earthmoving, forestry, and roadbuilding production systems. The Deere YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the Deere 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 Deere 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 DE 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.
