At this time, Cogeco's Return On Tangible Assets are very stable compared to the past year. As of the 30th of November 2024, Return On Assets is likely to grow to 0.01, while Return On Capital Employed is likely to drop 0.08.

Cogeco Inc has accumulated 4.98 B in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 1.22, which is about average as compared to similar companies. Cogeco Inc has a current ratio of 1.34, which is within standard range for the sector. Debt can assist Cogeco until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Cogeco'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 Cogeco Inc sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Cogeco to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Cogeco's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The ability to find closely correlated positions to Cogeco could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace Cogeco when you sell it. If you don't do this, your portfolio allocation will be skewed against your target asset allocation. So, investors can't just sell and buy back Cogeco - that would be a violation of the tax code under the "wash sale" rule, and this is why you need to find a similar enough asset and use the proceeds from selling Cogeco Inc to buy it.
The correlation of Cogeco is a statistical measure of how it moves in relation to other instruments. This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1. A perfect positive correlation (i.e., a correlation coefficient of +1) implies that as Cogeco moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Cogeco Inc 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. A correlation greater than 0.8 is generally described as strong, whereas a correlation less than 0.5 is generally considered weak.
Correlation analysis and pair trading evaluation for Cogeco can also be used as hedging techniques within a particular sector or industry or even over random equities to generate a better risk-adjusted return on your portfolios.
