What Does YTM Stand For?
YTM stands for Yield To Maturity
Yield to Maturity (YTM) is a financial metric that represents the total return an investor can expect to earn if a bond is held until its maturity date. It takes into account the bond's current market price, coupon payments, and the time remaining until maturity, providing a comprehensive measure of the bond's profitability. YTM is commonly used by investors to compare the attractiveness of different fixed-income securities and assess the potential risks and rewards associated with bond investments.
