Suppose that the index model for two Canadian stocks HD and ML is estimated with the following results: RHD =0.02+0.80RM+eHD R-squared =0.6 RML =-0.03+1.50RM+eML R-squared =0.4 σM =0.20 where M is S&P/TSX Comp Index and RX is the excess return of stock X. What is the standard deviation of each stock? (Hint: bi = (ρiM σi) / σM.)

INV2 P3a

Suppose that the index model for two Canadian stocks HD and ML is estimated with the following results:

RHD =0.02+0.80RM+eHD

R-squared =0.6

                RML =-0.03+1.50RM+eML

R-squared =0.4

σM =0.20

where M is S&P/TSX Comp Index and RX is the excess return of stock X. 

What is the standard deviation of each stock? (Hint: bi = (ρiM σi) / σM.)
