Coca-Cola Company (The) (KO)

TotalReturn:

'Total return, when measuring performance, is the actual rate of return of an investment or a pool of investments over a given evaluation period. Total return includes interest, capital gains, dividends and distributions realized over a given period of time. Total return accounts for two categories of return: income including interest paid by fixed-income investments, distributions or dividends and capital appreciation, representing the change in the market price of an asset.'

• Compared with the benchmark SPY (77.6%) in the period of the last 5 years, the total return of 68.1% of Coca-Cola Company (The) is lower, thus worse.
• During the last 3 years, the total return, or increase in value is 62.9%, which is higher, thus better than the value of 53.5% from the benchmark.

CAGR:

'The compound annual growth rate isn't a true return rate, but rather a representational figure. It is essentially a number that describes the rate at which an investment would have grown if it had grown the same rate every year and the profits were reinvested at the end of each year. In reality, this sort of performance is unlikely. However, CAGR can be used to smooth returns so that they may be more easily understood when compared to alternative investments.'

• Compared with the benchmark SPY (12.2%) in the period of the last 5 years, the annual return (CAGR) of 11% of Coca-Cola Company (The) is smaller, thus worse.
• During the last 3 years, the compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) is 17.7%, which is greater, thus better than the value of 15.4% from the benchmark.

Volatility:

'Volatility is a statistical measure of the dispersion of returns for a given security or market index. Volatility can either be measured by using the standard deviation or variance between returns from that same security or market index. Commonly, the higher the volatility, the riskier the security. In the securities markets, volatility is often associated with big swings in either direction. For example, when the stock market rises and falls more than one percent over a sustained period of time, it is called a 'volatile' market.'

• Compared with the benchmark SPY (13.3%) in the period of the last 5 years, the volatility of 14.1% of Coca-Cola Company (The) is larger, thus worse.
• Looking at 30 days standard deviation in of 14.1% in the period of the last 3 years, we see it is relatively greater, thus worse in comparison to SPY (13%).

DownVol:

'Risk measures typically quantify the downside risk, whereas the standard deviation (an example of a deviation risk measure) measures both the upside and downside risk. Specifically, downside risk in our definition is the semi-deviation, that is the standard deviation of all negative returns.'

• Looking at the downside risk of 10.1% in the last 5 years of Coca-Cola Company (The), we see it is relatively higher, thus worse in comparison to the benchmark SPY (9.6%)
• During the last 3 years, the downside risk is 9.9%, which is greater, thus worse than the value of 9.4% from the benchmark.

Sharpe:

'The Sharpe ratio was developed by Nobel laureate William F. Sharpe, and is used to help investors understand the return of an investment compared to its risk. The ratio is the average return earned in excess of the risk-free rate per unit of volatility or total risk. Subtracting the risk-free rate from the mean return allows an investor to better isolate the profits associated with risk-taking activities. One intuition of this calculation is that a portfolio engaging in 'zero risk' investments, such as the purchase of U.S. Treasury bills (for which the expected return is the risk-free rate), has a Sharpe ratio of exactly zero. Generally, the greater the value of the Sharpe ratio, the more attractive the risk-adjusted return.'

• Looking at the Sharpe Ratio of 0.6 in the last 5 years of Coca-Cola Company (The), we see it is relatively smaller, thus worse in comparison to the benchmark SPY (0.73)
• Looking at ratio of return and volatility (Sharpe) in of 1.07 in the period of the last 3 years, we see it is relatively larger, thus better in comparison to SPY (0.99).

Sortino:

'The Sortino ratio measures the risk-adjusted return of an investment asset, portfolio, or strategy. It is a modification of the Sharpe ratio but penalizes only those returns falling below a user-specified target or required rate of return, while the Sharpe ratio penalizes both upside and downside volatility equally. Though both ratios measure an investment's risk-adjusted return, they do so in significantly different ways that will frequently lead to differing conclusions as to the true nature of the investment's return-generating efficiency. The Sortino ratio is used as a way to compare the risk-adjusted performance of programs with differing risk and return profiles. In general, risk-adjusted returns seek to normalize the risk across programs and then see which has the higher return unit per risk.'

• The ratio of annual return and downside deviation over 5 years of Coca-Cola Company (The) is 0.84, which is lower, thus worse compared to the benchmark SPY (1.01) in the same period.
• Looking at ratio of annual return and downside deviation in of 1.52 in the period of the last 3 years, we see it is relatively higher, thus better in comparison to SPY (1.37).

Ulcer:

'The Ulcer Index is a technical indicator that measures downside risk, in terms of both the depth and duration of price declines. The index increases in value as the price moves farther away from a recent high and falls as the price rises to new highs. The indicator is usually calculated over a 14-day period, with the Ulcer Index showing the percentage drawdown a trader can expect from the high over that period. The greater the value of the Ulcer Index, the longer it takes for a stock to get back to the former high.'

• Looking at the Downside risk index of 5.5 in the last 5 years of Coca-Cola Company (The), we see it is relatively greater, thus worse in comparison to the benchmark SPY (3.97 )
• Looking at Downside risk index in of 4.86 in the period of the last 3 years, we see it is relatively larger, thus worse in comparison to SPY (4.1 ).

MaxDD:

'Maximum drawdown measures the loss in any losing period during a fund’s investment record. It is defined as the percent retrenchment from a fund’s peak value to the fund’s valley value. The drawdown is in effect from the time the fund’s retrenchment begins until a new fund high is reached. The maximum drawdown encompasses both the period from the fund’s peak to the fund’s valley (length), and the time from the fund’s valley to a new fund high (recovery). It measures the largest percentage drawdown that has occurred in any fund’s data record.'

• Looking at the maximum reduction from previous high of -13.6 days in the last 5 years of Coca-Cola Company (The), we see it is relatively larger, thus better in comparison to the benchmark SPY (-19.3 days)
• Compared with SPY (-19.3 days) in the period of the last 3 years, the maximum DrawDown of -13.6 days is greater, thus better.

MaxDuration:

'The Drawdown Duration is the length of any peak to peak period, or the time between new equity highs. The Max Drawdown Duration is the worst (the maximum/longest) amount of time an investment has seen between peaks (equity highs) in days.'

• The maximum time in days below previous high water mark over 5 years of Coca-Cola Company (The) is 288 days, which is greater, thus worse compared to the benchmark SPY (187 days) in the same period.
• During the last 3 years, the maximum days below previous high is 191 days, which is larger, thus worse than the value of 139 days from the benchmark.

AveDuration:

'The Average Drawdown Duration is an extension of the Maximum Drawdown. However, this metric does not explain the drawdown in dollars or percentages, rather in days, weeks, or months. The Avg Drawdown Duration is the average amount of time an investment has seen between peaks (equity highs), or in other terms the average of time under water of all drawdowns. So in contrast to the Maximum duration it does not measure only one drawdown event but calculates the average of all.'

• Looking at the average time in days below previous high water mark of 75 days in the last 5 years of Coca-Cola Company (The), we see it is relatively greater, thus worse in comparison to the benchmark SPY (42 days)
• Looking at average days below previous high in of 48 days in the period of the last 3 years, we see it is relatively higher, thus worse in comparison to SPY (37 days).
