Deep Analysis
A current ratio of 1.54x means ROST has $1.54 in current assets—like cash, inventory, and receivables—for every $1 of current liabilities due within a year, indicating it can cover short-term obligations comfortably.
This sits above the consumer cyclical sector median of 1.44x, placing ROST at the 57th percentile among peers, so its liquidity is slightly better than most. The trend is N/A: the year-over-year change is N/A and the quarter-over-quarter change is N/A, with only the current value of 1.54x available. Because the level is above the sector norm but no trend data exists to show improvement or deterioration, the risk profile is stable yet unverified over time. This metric supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict, as a solid but unremarkable liquidity position neither adds clear upside nor raises immediate red flags.
