INV 2-3c

Suppose that the index model for two Canadian stocks HD and ML is estimated with the following results:

RHD =0.02+0.80RM+eHD

R-squared =0.6

                RML =-0.03+1.50RM+eML

R-squared =0.4

σM =0.20

where M is S&P/TSX Comp Index and RX is the excess return of stock X. 

c. What is the covariance and the correlation coefficient between HD and ML?
