Ashland's declining ROCE and shrinking capital employed suggest challenging times ahead. Despite past returns, current trends do not inspire confidence, hinting at better investment opportunities elsewhere.
Despite Ashland's recent earnings drop, its high P/E ratio persists due to forecasted growth surpassing the broader market. Investors appear to dismiss the potential for earnings deterioration as insignificant, bolstering the share price.
Both Atalaya and Crestone expressed satisfaction with the partnership with Ashland Place and look forward to future collaborations. They praised Ashland Place's industry knowledge and ability to navigate the current economic environment.

Ashland's share price fall could reflect the market's disappointment despite recent 5.5% increase. Other metrics may need a look as EPS growth failed to lift the shares.
