Alphabet Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.1291 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.1291 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on equity (ROE) of 0.2362 %, meaning that it generated $0.2362 on every $100 dollars invested by stockholders. Alphabet's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Alphabet manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company has accumulated 12.86 B in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 0.12, which may suggest the company is not taking enough advantage from borrowing. Alphabet has a current ratio of 3.09, suggesting that it is liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Alphabet until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Alphabet's shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like Alphabet sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Alphabet to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Alphabet's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The ability to find closely correlated positions to Alphabet could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace Alphabet when you sell it. If you don't do this, your portfolio allocation will be skewed against your target asset allocation.

The correlation of Alphabet is a statistical measure of how it moves in relation to other instruments. This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1. A perfect positive correlation (i.e., a correlation coefficient of +1) implies that as Alphabet moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Alphabet moves in either direction, the perfectly negatively correlated security will move in the opposite direction. If the correlation is 0, the equities are not correlated; they are entirely random. A correlation greater than 0.8 is generally described as strong, whereas a correlation less than 0.5 is generally considered weak.

Please note, there is a significant difference between Alphabet's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if Alphabet is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, Alphabet's price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
