The quick ratio of Trane Technologies plc has shown a decreasing trend over the years based on the provided data. As of December 31, 2020, the quick ratio stood at 1.27, indicating a strong ability to meet short-term obligations with liquid assets. However, by December 31, 2024, the quick ratio had decreased to 0.77, signaling a potential weakening of the company's short-term liquidity position.

This downward trend in the quick ratio raises concerns about the company's liquidity management and its ability to cover immediate financial obligations without relying heavily on inventory or other less liquid assets. Further analysis and investigation into the company's liquidity position and management practices would be advisable to better understand the factors contributing to this decreasing trend in the quick ratio.
