The free cash flow
jitter of a stock measures how much the company's free cash flow varies
from its historical trend, on average. While it's always nice to make more
money than you expected, a company with predictable free cash flow is stable
and good. A company with wild swings in its free cash flow warrants further
research.
The dividend yield of a
stock is the amount of money paid out in dividends every year divided by the
stock's current price. While not every stock pays a dividend, many solid
companies pay good dividends. In general, the higher this calculation, the
better—think of it like an interest rate of an investment—if the
company pays dividends consistently.
A high dividend payout rate may indicate that the share price has fallen
recently. Be sure that the company is worth investing in before you chase high
dividend yields!
This stock has short interest! This means that people have shorted it.
Why does that matter? They've made a bet that price will decrease from where
they bought it. Maybe there are financial problems, or maybe there's a value
play.
As of the latest analysis, there are 17,188 shares shorted. With 28,888,436 shares available for purchase and an average trading
volume over the past 10 trading days of 26,360, it would take at least 0.652 days for all of the short holders to cover their
shorts.
