What this measure means

Cash and qualifying short-term liquid investments under the filer’s accounting policy. Restricted cash and longer-term investments may be reported separately.

Exact concept: us-gaap:CashAndCashEquivalentsAtCarryingValue. Each value is a balance at the reporting date, not a flow earned over a year. Different units remain separate; no currency conversion or interpolation is applied.

Coverage of this history

Latest-filed annual-report facts per unit and reporting period at capture time. Duration facts cover 300 to 400 days. This selection can include restatements and is not a point-in-time backtest dataset. Missing concepts are omitted, never zero-filled. Values retain original units and are not currency converted. Extended concepts require compatible unit shapes and at least three reporting ends with changing values within one unit. Constant or incompatible added histories are omitted.

Public company accounting reference, not market prices, returns, an investment recommendation, or ALPHAC performance. Validate a separately constructed return series with the validation API; accounting values are not returns.

Use this in research

A financial period ends before its results become public. Use the filing date as a minimum availability boundary, inspect amendments, and retain the original filing vintage when testing historical signals. This latest-filed selection can contain information unavailable at the time.

These pages do not supply prices, total-return histories, corporate-action adjustments or a tradable universe. Build those inputs separately before evaluating a strategy. A profitable backtest can still reflect selection bias or costs that were left out.
