Year-over-year, or YOY, or YoY
Māori translation:
Definition
Year-over-year, or YOY, compares performance of a stock, ETF or REIT today with the previous year, that is, 12 months ago. Analysts and companies commonly use YOY comparisons to look at growth or declines, trends, and to understand whether a company’s or ETF’s strategy or decisions have been successful. Understanding year-over-year changes is valuable for investors who want to understand performance and progress of an investment over time.
