The volume of exchanges can help an investor to identify the momentum in an action and confirm a trend. If trade volumes increase, prices generally move in the same direction. That is, if security continues to rise in an upward trend, even the volume of security should increase and vice versa. Trading volume can also signal when an investor should profit and sell a stock due to low activity. If there is no relationship between the volume of trade and the price of a security, this signals weakness in the current trend and a possible reversal.
The current 2.3 ratio is mainly used to give an idea of a company's ability to repay its liabilities (debts and payables) with its assets (liquidity, marketable securities, inventory, receivables). As such, the current relationship can be used to make a rough estimate of a company's financial health. The rapid ratio of 1.5 is a measure of how much a company can meet its short-term financial liabilities with fast assets (cash and cash equivalents, short-term marketable securities and credits). The greater the relationship, the greater the financial security of a company in the short term. A common rule of thumb is that companies with a rapid ratio above 1.0 are sufficiently able to meet their short-term liabilities.
The long-term debt / equity shows a value of 1.91 with a total debt / equity of 1.92. It provides investors with the idea of the company's leverage, measured by dividing total liabilities from shareholders' equity. It also illustrates the debt that the company is using to finance its assets in relation to the value represented in equity.
