BX Quick Ratio Analysis

Blackstone’s quick ratio of 0.13x means that for every dollar of short-term liabilities, the company holds only $0.13 in highly liquid assets (cash, marketable securities, and receivables) — a measure of its ability to cover immediate obligations without selling inventory.

This is far below the financial-services sector median of 0.59x, placing Blackstone in the 5th percentile among peers. No trend data is available: the year-over-year change is N/A, the quarter-over-quarter change is N/A, and the direction over the last eight quarters is also N/A. The combination of a very low quick ratio with no trend information suggests elevated short-term liquidity risk, but without a directional shift it is unclear whether this is a persistent structural issue or a momentary snapshot. This metric supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict: the extreme low level warrants caution, but the absence of a deteriorating trend prevents a downgrade or upgrade on this factor alone.
