Texas Instruments designs and makes semiconductors that it sells to electronics designers and manufacturers. Co.'s segments include Analog and Embedded Processing. Co.'s analog semiconductors change signals, such as sound, temperature, pressure or images, by conditioning them, amplifying them and often converting them to a stream of digital data that can be processed by other semiconductors. Co.'s embedded Processing products are designed to handle specific tasks and can be improved for various combinations of performance, power and cost, depending on the application. Co.'s Embedded Processing segment includes microcontrollers, digital signal processors and applications processors. The Texas Instruments YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the Texas Instruments 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 Texas Instruments 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 TXN 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.
