U.S. Antimony Corporation is engaged in the production and sale of antimony, precious metals, primarily gold and silver, and zeolite products. Its segments include the U.S. antimony operations, Mexican antimony operations, precious metals recovery operations and U.S. zeolite operations. It processes antimony ore primarily into antimony oxide, antimony metal, and antimony trisulfide. Its antimony oxide is used to form a flame-retardant system for plastics, rubber, fiberglass, textile goods, paints, coatings and paper, as a color fastener in paint, and as a phosphorescent agent in fluorescent light bulbs. Its antimony metal is used in bearings, storage batteries, and ordnance. The UAMY YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the UAMY 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 UAMY 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 UAMY 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.
