The iShares Asia/Pacific Dividend ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of relatively high dividend paying equities in Asia/Pacific developed markets, as represented by the Dow Jones Asia/Pacific Select Dividend 30TM Index (the “Index”). The Fund invests in a representative sample of securities included in the Index that collectively has an investment profile similar to the Index. Due to the use of representative sampling, the Fund may or may not hold all of the securities that are included in the Index. As of Apr 30 2015, the Fund had total assets of $45,462,276 and the Fund's investment portfolio was valued at $45,230,106. We show 1 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our DVYA shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute DVYA market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing DVYA market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing DVYA's market cap history versus its peers.
Many "beginner" or "novice" investors will look at one stock trading at a price of $10 per share and another trading at
a price of $20 per share and think the latter company is worth twice as much. Of course, that is a completely meaningless comparison without also knowing how many shares outstanding there are for each of the two companies,
and then calculating their respective market caps. Comparing the share price of DVYA versus a peer is one thing; comparing
DVYA market cap versus a peer is a completely different story.
Furthermore, via fluctuation both in per-share price and in the number of shares outstanding (via issuance of new shares over time, the repurchase of existing shares),
the market cap for a company like DVYA can fluctuate over the course of history.
