CAPM Beta Definition (Formula, Examples) CAPM Beta Calculation in Excel - YouTube

Channel: WallStreetMojo

[11]
hello everyone hi welcome to the channel of Wallstreetmojo friends today we
[15]
are going to learn tutorial on CAPM that is the capital asset pricing model the
[22]
beta that's we are going to learn will be learning definition formulas and how
[26]
it is calculated on the excel so when we invest in stock market how do we get to
[32]
know that stock A is less risky than stock B what is the case what is the
[38]
reason difference can arise due to the market capitalization revenue size
[41]
growth management etc so can we find a single measure which tell us which stock
[46]
is more risky the answer is yes and we call that as CAPM that is a capital
[52]
asset pricing model asset pricing model beta or capital asset pricing beta
[56]
pricing model beta you can say in this tutorial we are going to really look at
[60]
couple of things we'll start with the definitions let's begin the first
[65]
definition of CAPM beta CAPM beta so it is basically a measure of volatility or
[74]
systematic risk of a security or a portfolio in comparison to the market as
[78]
a whole beta is very important measure that is
[80]
used as a key input of the DCF valuation if you wish to learn DCF you can go on
[86]
and learn in the investment banking course there in which is available in
[90]
wallstreetmojo see now CAPM beta formula that's the second thing that we
[95]
are going to learn that is the formula if you have a slightest of the hint
[101]
regarding the DCF modelling then you would have heard about the capital asset
[104]
pricing model that calculates the cost of equity now if you calculate the cost
[114]
of equity as for the books then you know this cost of equity is equal to you can
[119]
say the risk-free rate that is the RF plus you have to multiply beta into the
[126]
risk premium so this is going to be a cost of equity
[132]
now the risk-free rate over here you can say I'll show you know in a diagram as
[138]
you can see the risk-free rate plus beta into this premium this is basically the
[142]
government's rate that is at regenerated the rate on investor expects from the
[145]
completely risk-free investment and should be current cash flow beta is your
[149]
sensitivity it is a function of both the business risk as well as the financial
[152]
risk consider everything beta is a measure of systemic risk which will
[156]
study risk premium is basically the extra gain that your you're getting
[162]
because of taking the risk apart from the risk-free rate as your risk premium
[165]
so investing in stock market is it riskier than the investing in government
[169]
bond investor expects a higher return to reduce induce them to take the higher
[173]
risk of investing in equities so if you have not heard about beta yet then you
[177]
need not worry this tutorial will explain you about the
[180]
beta in the most basic way let us take an example when we invest in stocks it
[183]
is but human to pick stocks that have highest possible returns however if one
[188]
chases only returns then the other is corresponding elements is missed that is
[193]
we are talking about over here is risk so actually every stock is expected to
[198]
have two types of risk one is non systematic risk then another a
[203]
systematic risk we'll discuss both of them non systematic risk includes the
[207]
risk that a specific two company or industry this kind of risk can be
[210]
eliminated through diversification and you can say this car across the sectors
[215]
and companies the effect of the diversification is that the diversifiable
[217]
risk of the various equities can offset each other systemic risk are
[223]
the those risk that affects the overall stock market systemic risk can be cannot
[228]
be mitigated through diversification but can be well understood why are an
[232]
important risk measure that is called as beta approaches none so now what is beta
[236]
beta definition beta is a measure of the stock risk in relation to the overall
[240]
market as you can see over here in the diagram return on the stock over the
[245]
risk for a return Beta 2.0 this is 1 below that is 0.5 and this is the
[250]
risk of the market or the risk-free rate so this is higher beta is higher risk a
[254]
lower beta is lower risk this is in the indifference point beta 1 over here of
[259]
the stock is the 1 that is has the same level of the risk and the stock
[263]
market hence if the stock market Nasdaq on NYC rises up by 1% then the
[269]
stock price we will also move by 1% the stock price will and if the
[273]
stock market moves down by 1% the stock price will the stock price
[277]
will also move down by 1% so if market in store price stock price will
[281]
also vary in this case if the beta is greater than 1 that is 2 over here if
[287]
the beta of the stock is greater than 1 then it implies that the higher level of
[290]
risk and volatility as compared to the stock market though the direction of the
[293]
stock price changes will be same however the stock price movements would
[297]
be greater than the extremes like for example assume that the beta of let's
[301]
say there is an ABC stock is two over here then if the stock market moves up by
[306]
let's say 1% let's say it goes up by 1% then the stock price of
[310]
ABC will move by 2% higher that is 2 is a beta so the stock price of
[315]
ABC will move by the 2% higher returns in the risk market however if
[319]
the stock price moves down by 1% the stock price of ABC will move down by
[322]
2% thereby signifying higher downside risk as well if the beta is
[329]
greater zero and less than one that is beta is
[332]
0.5 if the beta of the stock is less than 1 and greater than 0 it
[336]
implies that the stock price will move with the overall market however the
[340]
stock price will remain less risky and volatile like for example if the beta of
[343]
the stock of XYZ is 0.5 it means that the overall market moves up or down by
[348]
1% exit price will show an increase or decrease in by 0.5%
