ortoise Energy Independence Fund is a closed-end management investment company. The Fund's investment objective is to seek high total return with an emphasis on current distributions paid to stockholders. The Fund invests primarily in equity securities of upstream North American energy companies that engage in the exploration and production of crude oil, condensate, natural gas and natural gas liquids that have presence in North American oil and gas fields, including shale reservoirs. The NDP stock yearly return is shown above.
The yearly return on the NDP stock yearly return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annual return over the calendar year 2018 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 NDP annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
