  2. Chapter 6 Outline • Risk return relationship • Stand-alone risk • Portfolio risk • Risk & return: CAPM/SML

  3. What is investment risk? Investment risk is the probability of actually earning a low or negative return. The greater the chance of low or negative returns, the riskier the investment.

  4. Probability Distribution of Returns Firm X Firm Y Rate of return (%) -70 0 15 100 Expected Rate of Return

  5. Annual Total Returns,1926-1998 Average Standard Return Deviation Distribution Small-companystocks 17.4% 33.8% Large-companystocks 13.2 20.3 Long-termcorporate bonds 6.1 8.6 Long-termgovernment 5.7 9.2 Intermediate-termgovernment 5.5 5.7 U.S. Treasurybills 3.8 3.2 Inflation 3.2 4.5

  6. Daily Rates of Returns of the Istanbul Stock Exchange Index 1990-2001 (Mean Annualized Return 62.85%)

  7. Daily Rates of Returns of the Bank Index 1990-2001 (Mean Annualized Return 63.59%)

  8. Daily Rates of Returns of Akbank 1990-2001

  9. Investment Alternatives(Given in problem 6-19) Collec tions US Rubber High Tech Market Port. Economy Prob. T-Bill Recession 0.1 8.0% -22.0% 28.0% 10.0% -13.0% Below avg. 0.2 8.0 -2.0 14.7 -10.0 1.0 Average 0.4 8.0 20.0 0.0 7.0 15.0 Above avg. 0.2 8.0 35.0 -10.0 45.0 29.0 Boom 0.1 8.0 50.0 -20.0 30.0 43.0 1.0

  10. Why is the T-bill return independent of the economy? Return the promised 8% regardless of the economy. This is the coupon rate of the bond.

  11. Do T-bills promise a completelyrisk-free return? No, T-bills are still exposed to the risk of inflation. However, not much unexpected inflation is likely to occur over a relatively short period.

  12. Do the returns of HT and Coll. move with or counter to the economy? • HT: Moves with the economy, and has a positive correlation. This is typical. • Coll: Is countercyclical of the economy, and has a negative correlation. This is unusual.

  13. Calculate the expected rate of return on each alternative: ^ k = expected rate of return. ^ kHT = (-22%)0.1 + (-2%)0.20 + (20%)0.40 + (35%)0.20 + (50%)0.1 = 17.4%.

  14. ^ k HT 17.4% Market 15.0 USR 13.8 T-bill 8.0 Coll. 1.7 HT appears to be the best, but is it really?

  15. What’s the standard deviationof returns for each alternative?  = Standard deviation.  = =  =

  16. é ù ê ú ê ú ê ú ë û 1/2 (8.0 – 8.0)20.1 + (8.0 – 8.0)20.2 + (8.0 – 8.0)20.4 + (8.0 – 8.0)20.2 + (8.0 – 8.0)20.1 s = T - bills sT-bills = 0.0%. sColl = 13.4%. sUSR = 18.8%. sM = 15.3%. sHT = 20.0%.

  17. Prob. T-bill USR HT 0 8 13.8 17.4 Rate of Return (%)

  18. Standard deviation (si) measures total, or stand-alone, risk. • The larger the si , the lower the probability that actual returns will be close to the expected return.

  19. Expected Returns vs. Risk Expected Risk, s Security return HT 17.4% 20.0% Market 15.0 15.3 USR 13.8* 18.8* T-bills 8.0 0.0 Coll. 1.7* 13.4* *Seems misplaced, why?

  20. Risk return relationship of the above securities

  21. B A 0 sA = sB , but A is riskier because larger probability of losses. s = CVA > CVB. ^ k

  22. Portfolio Risk and Return Assume a two-stock portfolio with $50,000 in HT and $50,000 in Collections. ^ Calculate kp and sp.

  23. ^ Portfolio Return, kp ^ kp is a weighted average: n ^ ^ kp = Swiki. i = 1 ^ kp = 0.5(17.4%) + 0.5(1.7%) = 9.6%. ^ ^ ^ kp is between kHT and kCOLL.

  24. Alternative Method Estimated Return Economy Prob. HT Coll. Port. Recession 0.10 -22.0% 28.0% 3.0% Below avg. 0.20 -2.0 14.7 6.4 Average 0.40 20.0 0.0 10.0 Above avg. 0.20 35.0 -10.0 12.5 Boom 0.10 50.0 -20.0 15.0 ^ kp = (3.0%)0.10 + (6.4%)0.20 + (10.0%)0.40 + (12.5%)0.20 + (15.0%)0.10 = 9.6%.

  25. 1 / 2 é ù ê ú (3.0 – 9.6)20.10 + (6.4 – 9.6)20.20 + (10.0 – 9.6)20.40 + (12.5 – 9.6)20.20 + (15.0 – 9.6)20.10 ê ú ê ú ê ú p= = 3.3%. ê ú ê ú ê ú ê ú ê ú ë û 3.3% CVp = = 0.34. 9.6%

  26. sp = 3.3% is much lower than that of either stock (20% and 13.4%). • sp = 3.3% is lower than average of HT and Coll = 16.7%. • \ Portfolio provides average k but lower risk. • Reason: negative correlation. ^

  27. General statements about risk • Most stocks are positively correlated. rk,m» 0.65. • s » 35% for an average stock. • Combining stocks generally lowers risk.

  28. Returns Distribution for Two Perfectly Negatively Correlated Stocks (r = -1.0) and for Portfolio WM Stock W Stock M Portfolio WM . . . . 25 25 25 . . . . . . . 15 15 15 0 0 0 . . . . -10 -10 -10

  30. What would happen to theriskiness of an average 1-stockportfolio as more randomlyselected stocks were added? • sp would decrease because the added stocks would not be perfectly correlated but kp would remain relatively constant. ^

  31. Prob. Large 2 1 0 15 Even with large N, sp» 20%

  32. sp (%) Company Specific Risk 35 Stand-Alone Risk, sp 20 0 Market Risk 10 20 30 40 2,000+ # Stocks in Portfolio

  33. As more stocks are added, each new stock has a smaller risk-reducing impact. • sp falls very slowly after about 10 stocks are included, and after 40 stocks, there is little, if any, effect. The lower limit for sp is about 20% = sM .

  34. Stand-alone Market Firm-specific = + risk risk risk Market risk is that part of a security’s stand-alone risk that cannot be eliminated by diversification, and is measured by beta. Firm-specific risk is that part of a security’s stand-alone risk that can be eliminated by proper diversification.

  35. By forming portfolios, we can eliminate about half the riskiness of individual stocks (35% vs. 20%).

  36. If you chose to hold a one-stock portfolio and thus are exposed to more risk than diversified investors, would you be compensated for all the risk you bear?

  37. NO! • Stand-alone risk as measured by a stock’s sor CV is not important to a well-diversified investor. • Rational, risk averse investors are concerned with sp , which is based on market risk.

  38. There can only be one price, hence market return, for a given security. Therefore, no compensation can be earned for the additional risk of a one-stock portfolio.

  39. Beta measures a stock’s market risk. It shows a stock’s volatility relative to the market. • Beta shows how risky a stock is if the stock is held in a well-diversified portfolio. • Beta is the measure of systematic risk. Measures the sensitivity of stock’s return to changes in returns on the market portfolio.

  40. How are betas calculated? • Run a regression of past returns on Stock i versus returns on the market. Returns = D/P + g. • The slope of the regression line is defined as the beta coefficient.

  41. _ ki Illustration of beta calculation: Regression line: ki = -2.59 + 1.44 kM ^ ^ . 20 15 10 5 . Year kM ki 1 15% 18% 2 -5 -10 3 12 16 _ -5 0 5 10 15 20 kM -5 -10 .

  43. If beta = 1.0, average stock. • If beta > 1.0, stock riskier than average. • If beta < 1.0, stock less risky than average. • Most stocks have betas in the range of 0.5 to 1.5.

  44. List of Beta Coefficients Stock Beta Merrill Lynch 2.00 America Online 1.70 General Electric 1.20 Microsoft Corp. 1.10 Coca-Cola 1.05 IBM 1.05 Procter & Gamble 0.85 Heinz 0.80 Energen Corp. 0.80 Empire District Electric 0.45

  45. Can a beta be negative? Answer: Yes, if ri, m is negative. Then in a “beta graph” the regression line will slope downward. Though, a negative beta is highly unlikely.

  46. _ b = 1.29 ki HT 40 20 b = 0 T-Bills _ kM -20 0 20 40 -20 Coll. b = -0.86

  47. Expected Risk Security Return (Beta) HT 17.4% 1.29 Market 15.0 1.00 USR 13.8 0.68 T-bills 8.0 0.00 Coll. 1.7 -0.86 Riskier securities have higher returns, so the rank order is OK.

  48. Use the SML to calculate therequired returns. SML: ki = kRF + (kM– kRF)bi . • Assume kRF = 8%. • Note that kM = kM is 15%. (Equil.) • RPM = kM – kRF = 15% – 8% = 7%. ^

  49. Required Rates of Return kHT = 8.0% + (15.0% – 8.0%)(1.29) = 8.0% + (7%)(1.29) = 8.0% + 9.0% = 17.0%. kM = 8.0% + (7%)(1.00) = 15.0%. kUSR = 8.0% + (7%)(0.68) = 12.8%. kT-bill = 8.0% + (7%)(0.00) = 8.0%. kColl = 8.0% + (7%)(-0.86) = 2.0%.
