Problem 3 (15 marks)
Suppose that the index model for two Canadian stocks HD and ML is estimated with the following results:
RHD .02+0.80RM+eHD
R-squared .6
RML =-0.03+1.50RM+eML
R-squared .4
M .20
where M is S&P/TSX Comp Index, RX is the excess return of stock X.
- What is the standard deviation of each stock?
- What is the systematic risk of each stock? What are the covariance and correlation coefficient between HD and ML?
- For portfolio P with investment proportion of 0.3 in HD and 0.7 in ML, calculate the systematic risk, non-systematic risk and total risk of P.
