Item 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.
Our common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol SYK.
Our Board of Directors considers payment of cash dividends at its quarterly meetings. On January 31, 2023 there were 2,523 shareholders of record of our common stock.
We did not repurchase any shares in the three months ended December 31, 2022 and the total dollar value of shares that could be acquired under our authorized repurchase program at December 31, 2022 was $1,033.
In the fourth quarter 2022 we issued 48 shares of our common stock as performance incentive awards to employees. These shares were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 based on the conclusion that the awards were not events of sale within the meaning of Section 2(a)(3) of the Act.
The following graph compares our total returns (including reinvestment of dividends) against the Standard & Poor’s (S&P) 500 Index and the S&P 500 Health Care Index. The graph assumes $100 (not in millions) invested on December 31, 2017 in our common stock and each of the indices.
