Question
Suppose that there are two independent economic factors, F1 and F2, the risk-free rate is 6%, and all stocks have independent firm-specific components with a standard deviation of 30%. The following are well-diversified portfolios:
Portfolio | Beta on F1 | Beta on F2 | Expected Return |
A | 1.1 | 1.5 | 15% |
B | 0.9 | 0.5 | 13% |
What is the expected return-beta relationship in this economy?
