Activision Blizzard Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.052 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.052 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on stockholder's equity (ROE) of 0.111 %, meaning that it created $0.111 on every $100 dollars invested by stockholders. Activision Blizzard's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Activision Blizzard manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company currently holds 3.61 B in liabilities with Debt to Equity (D/E) ratio of 0.19, which may suggest the company is not taking enough advantage from borrowing. Activision Blizzard has a current ratio of 5.64, suggesting that it is liquid enough and is able to pay its financial obligations when due. Debt can assist Activision Blizzard until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Activision Blizzard'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 Activision Blizzard sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Activision to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Activision Blizzard's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The ability to find closely correlated positions to Activision Blizzard could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace Activision Blizzard when you sell it. If you don't do this, your portfolio allocation will be skewed against your target asset allocation. So, investors can't just sell and buy back Activision Blizzard - that would be a violation of the tax code under the "wash sale" rule, and this is why you need to find a similar enough asset and use the proceeds from selling Activision Blizzard to buy it.

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 Activision Blizzard moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Activision Blizzard moves in either direction, the perfectly negatively correlated security will move in the opposite direction.
