Black Iron's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Black Iron manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.

Black Iron has accumulated 1.32 M in total debt. Black Iron has a current ratio of 3.8, suggesting that it is liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Black Iron until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Black Iron'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 Black Iron sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Black to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Black Iron's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The correlation of Black Iron 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 Black Iron moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Black Iron 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 Black Iron 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.
