The attached file contains hypothetical data for working this problem. Goodman Corporation’s and Landry Incorporated’s stock prices and dividends, along with the Market Index, are shown in the file. Stock prices are reported for December 31 of each year, and dividends reflect those paid during the year. The market data are adjusted to include dividends.
Estimate Goodman’s and Landry’s betas as the slopes of regression lines with stock returns on the vertical axis (y-axis) and market return on the horizontal axis (x-axis). (Hint: use Excel’s SLOPE function.) Are these betas consistent with your graph?
The following are the end-of-month prices for both the Standard & Poor's 500 Index and Nike's common stock.
a. Using the data in the popup window, calculate the holding-period returns for each of the months.
b. Calculate the average monthly return and the standard deviation for both the S&P 500 and Nike.
c. Develop a graph that shows the relationship between the Nike stock returns and the S&P 500 Index. (Show the Nike returns on the vertical axis and the S&P 500 Index returns on the horizontal axis.)
d. From your graph, describe the nature of the relationship between Nike stock returns and the returns for the S&P 500 Index.
