According to CAPM, stocks with greater than average market risk would have an expected return lower than the expected return on the market. O D. If a company's beta is less than 1.0, then it is less risker than market.
State whether each of the following is inconsistent with the CAPM. A security with only diversifiable risk has an expected return that exceeds the risk-free interest rate. A security with a beta of 1 had a return last year of 15% when the market had a return of 9% Small stocks with a beta of 1.5 tend to have higher returns on average than large stocks with a beta of 1.5.
