Landstar System is a provider of integrated transportation management solutions. Co. provides services to its customers across several transportation modes, throughout the U.S. and to a lesser extent in Canada and Mexico, and between the U.S. and Canada, Mexico and other countries around the world. Co.'s operating segments are: transportation logistics, which provides a range of integrated transportation management solutions including truck transportation services, rail intermodal services, air and ocean services; and Insurance, which provides risk and claims management services to certain of Co.'s operating subsidiaries. The LSTR YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the LSTR 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 LSTR 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 LSTR 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.
