BlackRock Long-Term Municipal Advantage Trust is a closed-end management investment company. The Trust's investment objective is to provide current income exempt from regular United States Federal income tax. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in municipal obligations and derivative instruments with exposure to such municipal obligations. The BTA stock yearly return is shown above.
The yearly return on the BTA stock yearly return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annual return over the calendar year 2015 for the given stock.
When performing this calculation it is important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's annual return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon.
One way to factor dividends into the return is simply to count them as cash — we don't do
that here. Instead, our website aims to empower investors
by performing the BTA annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
