The beta of a firm's stock can be estimated as the slope of the best fitting straight line through a p of the stock's excess returns (on the x axis) versus the excess market returns (on the y axis). True

The covariance of the market's returns with the stock's returns is 0.008. The standard deviation ofthe market's returns is 0.08, and the standard deviation of the stock's returns is 0. 11. What is thecorrelation coefficient of the returns of the stock and the returns of the market?

Higher a stock’s volatility, why does the higher the probability of large increases or decreases in market price?

When we test CAPM using historical data, a classic test is to regress excess returns of stocks onto the stock betas, using the following regression specification across stocks: - Rp Rf =α+By+ε where Rup - Rf is the average excess return of a security or portfolio, ẞ is the estimated beta of the security or portfolio, & is the regression residual, and a (Alpha) and y (Gamma) are regression coefficients. Based on the regression, which of the following statements are true if CAPM is true? Select all two correct statements. The Alpha is zero The Alpha is positive The Gamma is positive The Gamma is zero
