NAV (Net Asset Value)

Investments

The per-share value of a mutual fund or ETF, calculated by dividing the fund's total net assets by the number of outstanding shares. For mutual funds, NAV is computed once daily after the market closes. ETFs trade throughout the day at prices that may differ slightly from their NAV.
