Eversource Energy is a holding company. Through its subsidiaries, Co. is engaged primarily in the energy delivery business. Co.'s segments are: electric distribution, which engages in the distribution of electricity to retail customers in Connecticut, Massachusetts and New Hampshire, and the solar power facilities; electric transmission, which owns and maintains transmission facilities that are part of an interstate power transmission grid over which electricity is transmitted throughout New England; natural gas distribution, which distributes natural gas in Massachusetts and Connecticut; and water distribution, which provides water services in Connecticut, Massachusetts and New Hampshire. The Eversource Energy YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the Eversource Energy 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 Eversource Energy 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 ES 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.
