Using the data below, report the following:

A. Estimate a one factor, or CAPM, regression analysis of the following form:

R_i - R_f = _i + _i(R_M - R_f)

Or, using the labels provided with the dataset

Rfund-rf = _i + _i(mktrf)

B. Estimate a three factor, or Fama-French, regression analysis of the following form:

R_i - R_f = _i + _i(R_M - R_f) + s_iSMB + h_iHML

Or, using the labels provided with the dataset

Rfund-rf = _i + _i(mktrf) + s_i(smb) + h_i(hml)

C. Estimate a four factor regression analysis of the following form:

R_i - R_f = _i + _i(R_M - R_f) + s_iSMB + h_iHML + u_iUMD

Or, using the labels provided with the dataset

Rfund-rf = _i + _i(mktrf) + s_i(smb) + h_i(hml) + u_i(umd)

Provide the Excel output for each regression analysis.

Discuss the results as they relate to exposures to the risk factors in each model. Is there evidence that this fund had particularly noteworthy performance during the 36-month period analyzed?
