P/C
Price / cash
How it is worked out
Market capitalisation ÷ (cash + short-term investments)How many times the cash pile the market is paying. It ignores the business entirely, so it is a floor rather than a valuation.
How to read it
how much of the price is covered by the cash pile. A blunt measure — it ignores the business entirely — but it is the floor the other multiples are built on top of

Whether it counts
This measure is not counted by default. It can be added to Valuation on the dashboard, and it then takes its share of that dimension.
