Debt To Equity Ratio
Debt to equity ratio: Total liabilities / Shareholder equity
A high debt to equity ratio means that a company is taking on more debt to run its business. A low debt to equity ratio means that a company is operating at low debt.
That’s why investors calculate the D/E ratio to understand a company’s ability to operate without debt. Generally, D/E is used for comparative analysis within sectors, not across industries because the ideal debt ratio may vary.
Discount Brokers
Discount brokers are discount brokers because their service is priced competitively, meaning the cost of trading and investing may be significantly low than a fullservice broker.

High Volatility Stocks
Book Building
Book building is typically done by an underwriter (like an investment bank) who will invite institutional investors like hedge funds, mutual funds, and others to submit bids for the financial instrument.
These bids act as a range that the underwriter can use to fix a price that satisfies the company issuing the security and market participants.
