A stock is estimated to have a covariance with the market of 0.45. For the coming period, the market expected return is 10%, the market variance is 0.60 and the market risk-premium is 5%. If the stock is currently trading at RM2.00, use to CAPM to calculate the future price of the stock at the end of the period.

An analyst has modeled the stock of a company using the Fama-French three-factor model. The market return is 10%, the return on the SMB portfolio (rSMB) is 3.2%, and the return on the HML portfolio (rHML) is 4.8%. If ai = 0, bi = 1.2, ci = 20.4, and di = 1.3, what is the stock’s predicted return?
A stock is trading at $80 per share. The stock is expected to have a yearend dividend of $4 per share (D1 = $4), and it is expected to grow at some constant rate, g, throughout time. The stock’s required rate of return is 14% (assume the market is in equilibrium with the required return equal to the expected return). What is your forecast of gL?
You have observed the following returns over time: Assume that the risk-free rate is 6% and the market risk premium is 5%. What are the betas of Stocks X and Y?

An analyst gathered daily stock returns for Feburary 1 through March 31, calculated the Fama-French factors for each day in the sample (SMBt and HMLt), and estimated the Fama-French regression model shown in Equation 6-21. The estimated coefficients were ai = 0, bi = 1.2, ci = 0.4, and di = 1.3. On April 1, the market return was 10%, the return on the SMB portfolio (rSMB) was 3.2%, and the return on the HML portfolio (rHML) was 4.8%. Using the estimated model, what was the stocks predicted return for April 1?
