Mullen Group has a current ratio of 2.87, suggesting that it is liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due.

However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like Mullen Group sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Mullen to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Mullen's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Mullen Group 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.
