BCE Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.0496 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.0496 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on equity (ROE) of 0.1081 %, meaning that it generated $0.1081 on every $100 dollars invested by stockholders. BCE's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well BCE manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities. As of the 28th of March 2024, Return On Assets is likely to grow to 0.04, while Return On Capital Employed is likely to drop 0.09. At this time, BCE's Intangible Assets are very stable compared to the past year. As of the 28th of March 2024, Other Assets is likely to grow to about 5.5 B, while Total Assets are likely to drop about 48.1 B.
The company has accumulated 3.77 B in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 1.28, which is about average as compared to similar companies. BCE Inc has a current ratio of 0.64, indicating that it has a negative working capital and may not be able to pay financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist BCE until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, BCE'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 BCE Inc sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for BCE to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about BCE's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

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

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 BCE moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if BCE Inc 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.
Correlation analysis and pair trading evaluation for BCE can also be used as hedging techniques within a particular sector or industry or even over random equities to generate a better risk-adjusted return on your portfolios.
