BCE Trading Alerts and Improvement Suggestions
| BCE Inc generated a negative expected return over the last 90 days | |
| BCE Inc has accumulated 36.18 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. | |

BCE 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 BCE or Diversified 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 BCE'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 BCE 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.
α | Alpha over Dow Jones | -0.33 | |
β | Beta against Dow Jones | 0.21 | |
σ | Overall volatility | 1.55 | |

BCE Volatility Alert
BCE Inc exhibits very low volatility with skewness of -3.54 and kurtosis of 22.71. Understanding different market volatility trends often help investors to time the market. Properly using volatility indicators enable traders to measure BCE's stock risk against market volatility during both bullish and bearish trends. The higher level of volatility that comes with bear markets can directly impact BCE's stock price while adding stress to investors as they watch their shares' value plummet. This usually forces investors to rebalance their portfolios by buying different financial instruments as prices fall.BCE Fundamentals Vs Peers
