Meta Platforms builds technology that helps people connect, find communities, and improve businesses. Co. has two segments: Family of Apps, which includes Facebook, Instagram, Messenger and WhatsApp; and Reality Labs, which includes Meta Quest virtual reality devices, as well as software and content available through the Meta Quest Store. Co. has launched Horizon Worlds, a social platform where people can interact with friends, meet new people, play games, and attend virtual events, and Horizon Workrooms, a virtual reality space for teams to connect and collaborate at work. As part of its augmented reality initiatives, Co. has introduced Ray-Ban Stories smart glasses and Meta Spark. The META YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the META 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 META 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 META 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.
