About John Hancock Premium Dividend Fund |
John Hancock Premium Dividend Fund is a closed-end management investment company. The Fund's investment objective is to provide high current income, consistent with modest growth of capital. The Fund pursues its objective by investing in a portfolio comprised primarily of dividend paying preferred securities and common equity securities. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in dividend paying securities. We show 1 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our PDT shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute PDT market cap on those dates. Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing share price, and the resulting changing PDT market cap history over the course of time is important for investors interested in comparing PDT'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 PDT versus a peer is one thing; comparing PDT 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 PDT can fluctuate over the course of history. With this page we aim to empower investors researching PDT by allowing them to research the PDT market cap history. |
