INTERPRETATION :-
Beta values are fairly easy to interpret. If the stock's price experiences movements that are
greater - more volatile - than the stock market, then the beta value will be greater than 1. If a
stock's price movements are less than those of the market then the beta value will be less than 1.
Here in case of Jagson airlines the beta value is -1.737 that shows that the stock price movement
of Jagson airlines is less than those of market. Here in this case Jagson stocks are less volatile,
have lower risk, and therefore lower overall returns.
Since there is less volatility of stock price means less risk to the investor and there is less expect
returns from stocks .
So , in this case there is low risk involved for the investor in Jagson airlines stock with lesser
return.
In an efficient market , the expected value of the alpha coefficient is zero. Therefore the alpha
coefficient indicates how an investment has performed after accounting for the risk it involved:
α < 0: the investment has earned too little for its risk (or, was too risky for the return)
αi= 0: the investment has earned a return adequate for the risk taken
α > 0: the investment has a return in excess of the reward for the assumed risk
Here in case of Jagsons stock the value of alpha is 0.001 which is greater than 1 which indicates
that the investment in Jagsons has a return in excess of the reward for the assumed risk.
