There are many other factors involved in achieving high returns other than Beta. These include
- Technical Analysis
- Other fundamental analysis variables
- The condition of the broad market (indices, individual blue chip or market moving stocks)
To go a step further, if you consider the nature of markets it would be clear that there isn't any one, simple thing that determines if you will earn high returns in any financial instrument. This is because as soon as it is known that any given variable could mean the stock price will move up what you see is the market almost immediately pricing this variable into the stock price. There is a huge argument over what is called the efficient market hypothesis and what economists like Schiller refer to as irrational market behavior.
The stock exchange index is a relative measure of the performance of all or a number of stocks that are traded on a stock exchange. it incorporates the return on stocks, their volumes traded and the shares outstanding. there can be a number of indices relating to a single stock exchange that incorporates the returns on a number of companies. they can also be differentiated on the basis of the return on different industries.
Risk reflects the chance that the actual return on an investment may be very different than the expected return. One way to measure risk is to calculate the variance and standard deviation of the distribution of returns.Consider the probability distribution for the returns on stocks A and B provided below.StateProbabilityReturn onStock AReturn onStock B120%5%50%230%10%30%330%15%10%320%20%-10%The expected returns on stocks A and B were calculated on the Expected Return page. The expected return on Stock A was found to be 12.5% and the expected return on Stock B was found to be 20%.Given an asset's expected return, its variance can be calculated using the following equation:whereN = the number of states,pi = the probability of state i,Ri = the return on the stock in state i, andE[R] = the expected return on the stock.The standard deviation is calculated as the positive square root of the variance.Note: E[RA] = 12.5% and E[RB] = 20%Stock AStock B
Well, isn't that just a happy little question! You can use an integer to show the relationship between two stock prices by subtracting one price from the other. If the result is positive, it means one stock price is higher than the other. If it's negative, then the other stock price is higher. It's all about finding the beauty in numbers and understanding the balance between them.

Working with POM QM and trying to determine the correct input data for a question. It goes something like this... $50K to spend Stock #1 = 12% return with a risk factor of 9 (1-10, 10 = highest) Stock #2 = 6% return with a risk factor of 4. Risk factor of the invest can not be more than 6. Trying to determine how data should be input to POM QM Thanks!

Dividend on common stock has to be more than dividend on preferred stock because of higher risk involved in equity investments.

A negative percent change in the stock market can lead to a decrease in the value of investors' portfolios. This means that the overall worth of their investments may go down, potentially resulting in financial losses for the investors.
The main difference between a bond and a stock is that a bond represents a loan made by an investor to a company or government, while a stock represents ownership in a company. Bonds typically offer fixed interest payments and return of principal at maturity, while stocks offer ownership in a company with potential for dividends and capital appreciation. The impact on investment decisions is that bonds are generally considered less risky but offer lower returns, while stocks have higher potential returns but also higher risk. Investors often choose a mix of both bonds and stocks in their portfolios to balance risk and return.

It depends on the standard deviation and risk of the new stock.
