Such returns are calculated for all the stocks in the S&P 500. A weighted average of those returns, using each stock's total market value, is then calculated, and that average return is often used as an indicator of the "return on the market."arrow_forwardA stock has had returns of -19.1 percent, 29.1 percent, 25.2 percent, -10.2 percent, 34.9 percent, and 27.1 percent over the last six years.
