- Morningstar publishes ratings data on 1,208 company stocks. A sample of 40 of these stocks is contained in the file named Morningstar. Use the Morningstar data set to answer the following questions. a. Develop a point estimate of the proportion of the stocks that receive Morningstars highest rating of 5 Stars. b. Develop a point estimate of the proportion of the Morningstar stocks that are rated Above Average with respect to business risk. c. Develop a point estimate of the proportion of the Morningstar stocks that are rated 2 Stars or less.arrow_forwardThe Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) and the Standard Poors 500 (SP 500) indexes are used as measures of overall movement in the stock market The DJIA is based on the price movements of 30 large companies: the SP 500 is an index composed of 500 stocks. Some say the SP 500 is a better measure of stock market performance because it is broader based. The closing price for the DJIA and the SP 500 for 15 weeks, beginning with January 6, 2012, follow (Barrons web site, April 17, 2012). a. Develop a scatter chart for these data with DJIA as the independent variable. What does the scatter chart indicate about the relationship between DJIA and SP 500? b. Develop an estimated regression equation showing how SP 500 is related to DJIA. What is the estimated regression model? c. What is the 95% confidence interval for the regression parameter 1? Based on this interval, what conclusion can you make about the hypotheses that the regression parameter 1 is equal to zero? d. What is the 95% confidence interval for the regression parameter 0? Based on this interval, what conclusion can you make about the hypotheses that the regression parameter 0 is equal to zero? e. How much of the variation in the sample values of SP 500 does the model estimated in part (b) explain? f. Suppose that the closing price for the DJIA is 13,500. Estimate the closing price for the SP 500. g. Should we be concerned that the DJIA value of 13,500 used to predict the SP 500 value in part (f) is beyond the range of the DJIA used to develop the estimated regression equation?arrow_forwardThe attached file contains hypothetical data for working this problem. Goodman Corporation’s and Landry Incorporated’s stock prices and dividends, along with the Market Index, are shown in the file. Stock prices are reported for December 31 of each year, and dividends reflect those paid during the year. The market data are adjusted to include dividends. Use the data given to calculate annual returns for Goodman, Landry, and the Market Index, and then calculate average returns over the five-year period. (Hint: Remember, returns are calculated by subtracting the beginning price from the ending price to get the capital gain or loss, adding the dividend to the capital gain or loss, and dividing the result by the beginning price. Assume that dividends are already included in the index. Also, you cannot calculate the rate of return for 2015 because you do not have 2014 data.)arrow_forward
