Suppose securities A, B, and C have the following expected return and risk.                                                     Stock           Expected return                           Risk  A                                8%                                  6%          B                                7%                                  9%          C                              13%                                 9%          What is the coefficient of variation for stock A?

1. If a stock has  a(Alpha)=0.002, b(Beta)=1.4,  Using the market model (eq. 7.4), find the expected percent return for the above stock if the market return is expected to be 2% and the risk free rate is 1%. 2.  Assume stock prices follow a random walk and a particular stock has had the following recent stock prices: Day 1: 129.5 Day 2: 126.9 Day 3: 127.1 what is the best estimate of day 4 prices?

U Assume CAPM holds. We know expected return and beta of two stocks: Stock A: E[ra] = 10% and beta_a = 1.5 Stock B: E[rb] = 5% and beta_b = 0.5 What would be the expected return of a stock that has a beta of 0.9? O 6.5% Ⓒ7% O 7.5% O 6% Question 5 Which of the following statements is false? o The CAPM follows from equilibrium conditions in a frictionless mean-variance economy with rational investors According to CAPM, everyone should hold a mix of the market portfolio and the risk-free asset. According to CAPM, everyone can generate positive return by buying positive alpha stocks and by selling negative alpha stocks. According to CAPM, the expected return on a stock is a linear function of its beta.
