6.5 A Single-Index Stock Market

Index model

Relates stock returns to returns on broad market index & firm-specific factors

Excess return

RoR in excess of risk-free rate

Beta

Sensitivity of security’s returns to market factor

Firm-specific or residual risk

Component of return variance independent of market factor

Alpha

Stock’s expected return beyond that induced by market index

6.5 A Single-Index Stock Market

Excess Return

Where:

: component of return due to movements in overall market

: security’s responsiveness to market

: stock’s expected excess return if market factor is neutral, i.e. market-index excess return is zero

: Component attributable to unexpected events relevant only to this security (firm-specific)
