Fairfax Fin Management Efficiency

Fairfax Fin's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Fairfax Fin manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Fairfax Fin Hld has accumulated 7.75 B in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 45.3, indicating the company may have difficulties to generate enough cash to satisfy its financial obligations. Fairfax Fin Hld has a current ratio of 2.09, suggesting that it is liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Fairfax Fin until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Fairfax Fin'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 Fairfax Fin Hld sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Fairfax to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Fairfax Fin's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

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