About Return on Equity (ROE)

Click "Learn More" below to see how YCharts calculates Return on Equity.

Return on equity (ROE) measures the rate of return on the money invested by common stock owners and retained by the company thanks to previous profitable years. It demonstrates a company's ability to generate profits from shareholders' equity (also known as net assets or assets minus liabilities). In other words, ROE shows how well a company uses investment funds to generate growth. Return on equity is useful for comparing the profitability of companies within a sector or industry.

Investors generally are interested in company's that have high, increasing returns on equity.

Observation:Appears as though $AMZN is setting up for upside. Back above 187 should be a positive. Stops below 185.94 or tighter at 186.29.
