Disney Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.0207 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.0207 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on equity (ROE) of 0.035 %, meaning that it generated $0.035 on every $100 dollars invested by stockholders. Disney's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Disney manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
The company has accumulated 45.3 B in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 0.49, which is about average as compared to similar companies. Walt Disney has a current ratio of 1.0, suggesting that it is not liquid enough and may have problems paying out its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Disney until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Disney'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 Walt Disney sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Disney to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Disney's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The ability to find closely correlated positions to Disney could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace Disney when you sell it.

This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1.

Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Walt Disney 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.
