Tri-Continental is registered as a diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Fund's investment objective is to produce future growth of both capital and income, while providing reasonable income. The Fund invests across a company's investable capital structure, including stocks, bonds and convertible securities. The TY stock yearly return is shown above.
The yearly return on the TY stock yearly return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annual return over the calendar year 2017 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 TY annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
