Apr 30, 2018 at 23:51 | comment | added | JBentley | Beta isn't a measure of an individual stock's volatility. It's the stock's volatility relative to the market. That's quite an important distinction. A stock could be hugely volatile but have a low beta because it exists in a hugely volatile market. Or vice versa. Your second paragraph does provide some details of this, but I would say its opening sentence could do with tweaking a little. Otherwise a solid answer. | |
