Share of earnings coming from accruals rather than cash. Higher values historically precede weaker future returns.
GARCH(1,1) 30-day annualised forecast, above the current 19.1% reading.
Fama-French 5-factor market beta. The five factors explain 19% of this stock's return variance; the rest is idiosyncratic.
