Adjusted Closing Price
The adjusted closing price of a stock reflects modifications made to account for corporate actions—such as dividends, stock splits, or other events. This adjusted figure provides a more accurate representation of the stock's value by factoring in these changes, ensuring that historical price data remains consistent and comparable over time. Unlike the regular closing price, which is simply the last traded price of the day, the adjusted closing price incorporates these post-market adjustments, making it a key metric for investors analyzing long-term performance or charting trends.
