To determine which one of the two entities, such as Professional or Caldwell is a better fit for your portfolio, analyzing a few basic fundamental indicators is a good first step.

How important is Professional Diversity's Liquidity

Professional Diversity financial leverage refers to using borrowed capital as a funding source to finance Professional Diversity Network ongoing operations. It is usually used to expand the firm's asset base and generate returns on borrowed capital. Professional Diversity financial leverage is typically calculated by taking the company's all interest-bearing debt and dividing it by total capital. So the higher the debt-to-capital ratio (i.e., financial leverage), the riskier the company. Financial leverage can amplify the potential profits to Professional Diversity's owners, but it also increases the potential losses and risk of financial distress, including bankruptcy, if the firm cannot cover its debt costs. The degree of Professional Diversity's financial leverage can be measured in several ways, including by ratios such as the debt-to-equity ratio (total debt / total equity), equity multiplier (total assets / total equity), or the debt ratio (total debt / total assets).

Correlation Between Professional and Caldwell Partners

In general, Stock analysis is a method for investors and traders to make individual buying and selling decisions. Stock correlation analysis is also essential because it can help investors realize that they may not be as diversified as they think. Risk management strategies are usually required to make sure all portfolios are properly aligned against their risk tolerance level. You can consider holding Professional Diversity together with similar or unrelated positions with a negative correlation. For example, you can also add Caldwell Partners to your portfolio. If Caldwell Partners is not perfectly correlated to Professional Diversity it will diversify some of the market risks out of the positively correlated stocks in your portfolio. However, the disadvantage of this sort of hedging is that it can potentially affect your investment returns throughout market cycles. When Professional Diversity, for example, performs excellent and delivers stable returns, the negatively correlated position you locked in as a hedge may drag your returns down.
Are you currently holding both Professional Diversity and Caldwell Partners in your portfolio? Please note if you are using this as a pair-trade strategy between Professional Diversity and Caldwell Partners, watch out for correlation discrepancy over time. Relying on the historical price correlations and assuming that it will not change may lead to short-term losses. Please check pair correlation details between IPDN and CWLPF for more information.
