The analysis of the quarterly financial data reveals several notable trends and variations across the different asset categories over the observed periods.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
This category exhibits moderate fluctuations, generally ranging between approximately 9.6% and 20.0% of total assets. Notably, from March 2013 onward, the cash proportion shows an increasing trend with peaks around 16.9% to 20.0% by mid-2016, suggesting enhanced liquidity management or accumulation of cash reserves during these periods.
Short-term Investments
Short-term investments maintain a relatively stable range, mostly between 3% and 8% of total assets. A significant surge occurred around mid-2013, reaching above 8%, followed by a gradual stabilization near 4% to 5.8% in subsequent quarters. This pattern may indicate tactical shifts in liquid investment strategies.
Accounts and Notes Receivable, Net
Receivables as a percentage of total assets display minor fluctuations within a range from around 6.2% to 9.6%. While no clear directional trend is observed, some quarters, especially late 2014 and late 2015, show slightly elevated values, suggesting variations in credit policies or sales cycles impacting receivables.
Inventories
Inventory levels remain relatively stable throughout the periods, fluctuating narrowly between approximately 2.66% and 3.4%. This stability indicates consistent inventory management relative to total assets over time.
Deferred Income Taxes (Current and Noncurrent)
Current deferred income taxes mostly range from about 1.1% to 2.5%, with occasional missing data in recent periods. Noncurrent deferred taxes show some activity only in the last three reported quarters with values around 2.5%. These modest fluctuations suggest steady tax-related asset impacts without significant volatility.
Other Current Assets
This category shows slight variation, generally hovering between about 1.1% and 1.8%. The consistency indicates limited changes in miscellaneous current asset components relative to total assets.
Current Assets (Aggregate)
Overall current assets represent a sizeable portion of total assets, typically ranging from 29% to nearly 39%. Noticeably, there is a peak around mid-2013 surpassing 38%, correlating with rises in cash and short-term investments during the same period, which points to a temporary increase in liquidity or short-term holdings.
Long-term Investments
Long-term investments exhibit some volatility, showing a decline from a high near 16% in 2014 to below 10% by mid-2016. This downward trend suggests divestitures or reallocation of long-term holdings over the latter part of the timeline.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
This asset component maintains stability, largely within an 7.4% to 8.6% range, showing no pronounced trend but some minor fluctuations. This consistency denotes steady investment or depreciation practices in tangible fixed assets.
Intangible Assets, Net
Intangible assets slightly decrease over time, moving from nearly 6% early on down to about 4.3% by mid-2016. This trend could reflect amortization or write-downs exceeding new capitalizations in intangible asset categories.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents a dominant segment, typically accounting for 31.5% to nearly 38% of total assets. While generally stable, it dips notably around 2013, before recovering to prior levels in subsequent periods. This fluctuation may be due to impairment adjustments or acquisition activity influencing goodwill balances.
Other Assets, Net
This category remains fairly consistent, centered around 3.8% to 4.6% across the quarters, indicating stable components in other noncurrent assets.
Noncurrent Assets (Aggregate)
Noncurrent assets generally make up around 64% to 70% of total assets, with some variation over time. A decrease is noted around 2013, coinciding with lower goodwill and investment proportions, but values rebound in later periods, reflecting shifts in asset composition.
Total Assets
Total assets are normalized to 100% in all periods for comparative purposes, providing the basis for relative percentage assessments across categories.

In summary, there is evidence of strategic shifts in asset allocation, particularly increased liquidity components (cash and short-term investments) after 2013 and a marked reduction in long-term investments by mid-2016. Stability in inventories, property, plant, and other assets suggests balanced operational asset management, while declines in intangibles and temporary fluctuations in goodwill reflect adjustments in intangible asset valuation. Overall, the data portrays a dynamic asset structure with emphasis on liquidity improvement and shifts in investment strategies over the analyzed period.
