PLDT Trading Alerts and Improvement Suggestions

The company has 292.01 B in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 2.19, meaning that the company heavily relies on borrowing funds for operations. PLDT Inc ADR has a current ratio of 0.43, suggesting that it has not enough short term capital to pay financial commitments when the payables are due. Debt can assist PLDT until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, PLDT'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 PLDT Inc ADR sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for PLDT to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about PLDT's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

PLDT Greeks

Most traded equities are subject to two types of risk - systematic (i.e., market) and unsystematic (i.e., nonmarket or company-specific) risk. Unsystematic risk is the risk that events specific to PLDT or Wireless Telecommunication Services sector will adversely affect the stock's price. This type of risk can be diversified away by owning several different stocks in different industries whose stock prices have shown a small correlation to each other. On the other hand, systematic risk is the risk that PLDT's price will be affected by overall stock market movements and cannot be diversified away. So, no matter how many positions you have, you cannot eliminate market risk. However, you can measure a PLDT stock's historical response to market movements and buy it if you are comfortable with its volatility direction. Beta and standard deviation are two commonly used measures to help you make the right decision.
