- A challenge we run into when forecasting future stock returns is that stock returns compound. So, when using historical averages to forecast the future, we need to average together the arithmetic and geometric average returns using Blume's Formula: R(T) = T GeoAvg + NT Arith Avg N-1 In this formula, N is the number of historical annual returns you are using to calculate your averages and T is the number of future annual returns you are forecasting. Suppose you gather the following prices for a stock in order to calculate the last 10 (N = 10) annual returns. The stock does not pay dividends. Time 0 1 Time 0 calculate the last 10 (N=10) annual returns. The stock does not pay dividends. 1 2 3 4 5 10 6 . 7 8 9 10 Price $23.16 $32.81 Price $23.16 $32.81 $33.63 $36.83 $41.95 $41.04 $33.83 $37.45 $30.56 $29.90 $47.93 Using Blume's formula, what is the expected return per year for the next 4 years (T = 4)?

Suppose AXON has a beta of 0.95 and a monthly alpha of 0.5 (representing half a percent). If you set up the regression model correctly, the index model equation should be (remember in index model formulas, we use R instead of r to denote excess returns): Select an answer and submit. For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. b с d Rmarket = Rmarket = 0.5 x Rstock +0.95 Raxon 0.95 x Rstock +0.5 = 0.5 x Rmarket +0.95 Raxon = 0.95 x Rmarket +0.5arrow_forwardAssume that you are using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) to find the expected return for a share of common stock. Your research shows the following: Beta = βi = 1.54 Risk free rate = Rf = 2.5% per year Market return = E(RM) = 6.5% per year Based on this information, answer the following: A. Based on the beta, how does the stock's risk compare to the market overall? On what do you base your answer? B. Based on the beta, how would you expect the stock's returns to react to a decrease in returns in the market overall? Why? C. According to the CAPM and the information given above, what is the expected return E(Ri) for this stock? D. If the required rate of return on this stock were 7% per year, would you invest?
