 Suppose that the covariance between a stock and the market portfolio is 0.06 and that the standard deviation of the market portfolio is 0.30. Suppose also that the standard deviation of the stock’s returns is 0.55. Based on the CAPM, what is β of this stock? (Please answer as a number and round to 2 decimal places. If the answer is 0.768, then in the box, write 0.77)

The scatter plots below depict the relation between excess returns of two stocks and the market excess return. In each graph,  the market excess return is on the x-axis and the stock excess return is on the y-axis. The dashed line is estimated using a single-variable linear regression and represents the best linear fit: Which stock has higher α?

Which of the following is an implication of the CAPM in equilibrium?
