Canadian Pacific Management Efficiency

The company has return on total asset (ROA) of 0.044 % which means that it generated a profit of $0.044 on every $100 spent on assets. This is way below average. Similarly, it shows a return on equity (ROE) of 0.0809 %, meaning that it generated $0.0809 on every $100 dollars invested by stockholders. Canadian Pacific's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Canadian Pacific manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities. At this time, Canadian Pacific's Return On Capital Employed is very stable compared to the past year. As of the 25th of November 2024, Return On Equity is likely to grow to 0.14, while Return On Tangible Assets are likely to drop 0.05. At this time, Canadian Pacific's Net Tangible Assets are very stable compared to the past year.

Canadian Pacific Railway has accumulated 22.84 B in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 1.34, which is about average as compared to similar companies. Canadian Pacific Railway has a current ratio of 0.59, 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 Canadian Pacific until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Canadian Pacific'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 Canadian Pacific Railway sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Canadian to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Canadian Pacific's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The ability to find closely correlated positions to Canadian Pacific could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace Canadian Pacific 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 Canadian Pacific - 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 Canadian Pacific Railway to buy it.
The correlation of Canadian Pacific 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 Canadian Pacific moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Canadian Pacific Railway moves in either direction, the perfectly negatively correlated security will move in the opposite direction.

A correlation greater than 0.8 is generally described as strong, whereas a correlation less than 0.5 is generally considered weak.
