What are investment returns?

Investment returns measure financial results of an investment.

Returns may be historical or prospective (anticipated).

Returns can be expressed in: ($) dollar terms. (%) percentage terms.

6

An investment costs $1,000 and is sold after 1 year for $1,100.

Dollar return:

Percentage return:

$ Received - $ Invested $1,100 - $1,000 = $100

$ Return/$ Invested $100/$1,000 = 0.10 = 10%

7

What is investment risk?

Typically, investment returns are not known with certainty.

Investment risk pertains to the probability of earning a return less than expected.

Greater the chance of a return far below the expected return, greater the risk.

Stand-Alone Risk

Standard deviation measures the stand-alone risk of an investment.

The larger the standard deviation, the higher the probability that returns will be far below the expected return.

Comparing Different Stocks

Correlation coefficient = r (rho): Measures tendency of 2 variables to

move together. Rho (r) = 1 = perfect + correlation & variables move together in unison.

Does not help with diversification See text figures 6-9 thru 6-11

22

Two-Stock Portfolios Two stocks can be combined to form

a riskless portfolio if = -1.0. Risk is not reduced at all if the two

stocks have = +1.0. In general, stocks have ≈ 0.35, so

risk is lowered but not eliminated. Investors typically hold many stocks. What happens when = 0?

23

Adding Stocks to a Portfolio

What would happen to the risk of an average 1-stock portfolio as more randomly selected stocks were added?

p would decrease because the added stocks would not be perfectly correlated, but the expected portfolio return would remain relatively constant.

Risk vs. Number of Stock in Portfolio

26

Stand-alone risk = Market risk + Diversifiable risk

Market risk is that part of a security’s stand-alone risk that cannot be eliminated by diversification.

Firm-specific, or diversifiable, risk is that part of a security’s stand-alone risk that can be eliminated by diversification.

27

Conclusions As more stocks are added, each new

stock has a smaller risk-reducing impact on the portfolio.

p falls very slowly after about 40 stocks are included. The lower limit for p is about 20% = M .

By forming well-diversified portfolios, investors can eliminate about half the risk of owning a single stock.

28

Can an investor holding one stock earn a return commensurate with its risk?

No. Rational investors will minimize risk by holding portfolios.

They bear only market risk, so prices and returns reflect this lower risk.

The one-stock investor bears higher (stand-alone) risk, so the return is less than that required by the risk.

29

How is market risk measured for individual securities?

Market risk, which is relevant for stocks held in well-diversified portfolios, is defined as the contribution of a security to the overall riskiness of the portfolio.

It is measured by a stock’s beta coefficient. For stock i, its beta is:

bi = (i,M i) / M

30

How are betas calculated?

In addition to measuring a stock’s contribution of risk to a portfolio, beta also measures the stock’s volatility relative to the market.

31

Using a Regression to Estimate Beta

Run a regression with returns on the stock in question plotted on the Y axis and returns on the market portfolio plotted on the X axis.

The slope of the regression line, which measures relative volatility, is defined as the stock’s beta coefficient, or b.

32

Use the historical stock returns to calculate the beta for PQU.

R2 measures degree of dispersion about regression line (ie – measures % of variance explained by regression equation)

PQU’s R2 of .3546 means about 35% of PQU’s returns are explained by the market returns (32% for a typical stock)

R2 of .95 on portfolio of 40 randomly selected stocks would reflect a regression line with points tightly clustered to it.

Capital Asset Pricing Model

The Security Market Line (SML) is part of the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM).

Return = Risk Free + Beta (RetMrkt –Rf)

SML: ri = rRF + (RPM)bi . Assume rRF = 8%; rM = rM = 15%. RPM = (rM - rRF) = 15% - 8% = 7%.

50

Use the SML to calculate eachalternative’s required return.



51

Required Rates of Return

rAlta = 8.0% + (7%)(1.29) = 17%. rM = 8.0% + (7%)(1.00) = 15.0%. rAm. F. = 8.0% + (7%)(0.68) =

12.8%. rT-bill = 8.0% + (7%)(0.00) = 8.0%. rRepo = 8.0% + (7%)(-0.86) = 2.0%.

Has the CAPM been completely confirmed or refuted?

No. The statistical tests have problems that make empirical verification or rejection virtually impossible. Investors’ required returns are based

on future risk, but betas are calculated with historical data.

Investors may be concerned about both stand-alone and market risk.

Alta Inds. and Repo Men vs. Economy

Alta moves with economy, so it is positively correlated with economy. This is typical

Repo Men moves counter to economy. Such negative correlation is unusual.

rAlta = 0.10(-22%) + 0.20(-2%) + 0.40(20%) + 0.20(35%) + 0.10(50%) = 17.4%.

76

Portfolio vs. Its Components Portfolio expected return (9.6%) is

between Alta (17.4%) and Repo (1.7%) returns.

Portfolio standard deviation is much lower than: either stock (20% and 13.4%). average of Alta and Repo (16.7%).

The reason is due to negative correlation () between Alta and Repo returns.

What is beta for PQU?

The regression line, and hence beta, can be found using a calculator with a regression function or a spreadsheet program. In this example, b = 0.83.

90

Calculating Beta in Practice

Many analysts use the S&P 500 to find the market return.

Analysts typically use four or five years’ of monthly returns to establish the regression line.

Some analysts use 52 weeks of weekly returns.

91

How is beta interpreted?

If b = 1.0, stock has average risk. If b > 1.0, stock is riskier than

average. If b < 1.0, stock is less risky than

average. Most stocks have betas in the range

of 0.5 to 1.5. Can a stock have a negative beta?

92
