SD(average of independend identical risk) = SD(individual risk)/sqroot Numer of observations
30
Common risk
Risk is perfectly correlated ; E.g Earthquake hits all houses
31
Independent risk
Risks without correlation Example: Thief breaks into one specific house
32
Firm-specific news
Is good or bad news about the company itself. For example, a firm might announce that it has been successful in gaining the market share within its industry
33
Market wide news
Is news about the economy as a whole and therefore affects all stock
34
Identifying systematic risk
Finding a portfolio that ocntains only systematic risk. Changes in this portfolio will correspond to systematic shocks to the economy (Efficient portfolio)
35
Efficient portfolio
Cannot be diversified further, bo way to reduce the risk without reducing the return
36
Beta
measures the sensitivity of a security to market wide risk factors
37
Market risk premium
E(r(mrk))-risk free interest rate
38
Estimating the cost of capital of an investment from its beta (cost of capital)

43
sharpe ratio
Steepest possible tangent line on portfolio for return(y) risk(x) (risk-reward ratio)
44
Three main assumptions of the capital asset pricing model
Investors trade securities at competitive market prices (without incurring traxes or transaction costs) and can borrow and lend at the risk free rate
Investors choose efficient portfolios
Investors have homogeneous expectations regarding the volatilities, correlations and expected returns of securities
45
Equity cost of capital formula
E(Ri) = Rf + betai x(E(Rm) - RF)
46

50
Index funds
Mutual funds that invest in the S&P 500 etc
51
Exchange traded funds

52
How to invest in an index in practice
You invest a mutual fund company. You will be a shareholder of the mutual company. That mutual company can invest in efts too
53
How to estimate the historical risk premium
Estimate the risk premium (E(Rmrk) - rf) using the historical average exess return of the market over the risk free interest rate
54
Debt betas
Debt betas are difficult to estimate because corporate bonds are traded infrequently. One appx is to use estimates of betas of bond indices by rating category
55
Dividend discount model
Focuses on total discounted value of future dividends of firms. Has several limitations
56
Total payout model
Ignores the firms choice between dividend and share repurchases, Values all of the firms equity, rather than a single share
57
PV0 total payout model (formula)
= PV(future total dividends and repurchases)/Shares outstanding
58
PV0 share price (discount free cash flow formula)
Pv0 = P0 = PV(Future cash flows)+ cash – debt / shares outstanding
59
Change in earnings
New investment x Return on new investment
60
Dividend formula
Earnings per share x payout ratio
61
Limitations of the dividend discount model
Forecasting a firms dividend growth rate and future dividends is not easy
Little change in growth rate estimation may lead to big changes
62
Discounted free cash flows model
Determines the value of the firm to all investors, including both equity and debt holders
63
Free cash flow
Unlevered net income + Depreciation
−CapitalExpenditures − IncreasesinNetWorkingCapital

Cov(Ri,Rj) = E[(Ri − E[Ri])(Rj − E[Rj])] /N-1
74
Correlation definition
A measure of the common risk shared by stocks that does not depend on their volatility (that means that the risk of two stocks combined is less than the individual risk of both stocks)

94
Under diversification
There is much evidence that individual investors fail to diversify their portfolios adequately
95
Familiarity Bias
: Investors favour investments in companies with which they are familiar
96
Relative wealth concerns
Investors care more about the performance of their portfolios relative to their peers
97
Hanging on to losers and the disposition effect:
An investor holds on to stocks that have lost their value and sell stocks that have risen in value since the time of purchase
98
Attention
Individuals are more likely to buy stocks that have recently been in the news and advertising, experienced exceptionally high trading volume, or have had extreme returns
99
Mood
Sunshine generally has a positive effect on mood, and studies have found that stock returns tend to be higher when it is a sunny day at the location of the stock exchange
100
Experience
Investors appear to put too much weight on their own experience rather than considering all the historical evidence. As a result, people who grew up and lived during a time of high stock returns are more likely to invest in stocks than are people who experienced times when stocks performed poorly
101
Information cascade effect
: Traders ignore their own information hoping to profit form the information of others
102
2) Relative wealth concers
Individuals choose to herd in order to avoid the risk of underperforming their peers
103
Reputation risk
Professionals may face reputation risk if they stray too far from the actions of their peers
104
size effect
Small market capitalization stocks have historically earned higher average return than the market portfolio, even after accounting for their higher beta
105
Exess return and book-to-market ratio
: High book-to-market stocks have historically earned higher average returns than low book-to-book market stocks
106
momentum strategy
Buying stocks that have had past high returns and (short) selling stocks that have had past low return.
107
proxy
value for interest as that can not be measured
108
Behaviour biases
By falling prey to be behavioural biases, investors may hold inefficient portfolios
109
momentum strategy
Buying stocks that have had past high returns and (short) selling stocks that have had past low returns
110
Multifactor models of risk:
E(Rs) = rf + betas*(E(Rmrk)-rf) + beta * E(Rx1) + Beta* E(Rx2) + beta * e(Rx3)
```
X1 = Market capitalization strategy
X2 = Book-to market ratio strategy
X3 = past return strategy
```
111
Capital gain rate
P1-P0/P0
112
Share price discounted cash flow model
(PV(FCF) + cash - debt) /shares outstanding
113
Waac formula
(𝐸/𝐸+𝐷)*𝑟(𝐸) + (𝐷/𝐸+𝐷)*𝑟(𝐷)*(1−𝑡𝑎𝑥)
114
What if the current stock price less than P0?
Then you may consider the stock is underpriced →
• people rush in and buy it ,
• And this market behaviour would drive up the stock’s price.
115
dividend per share
Earnings/shares outstanding x dividend payout rate
116
Change in earnings formula
New investment x Return on new investment
117
Consequences of share repurchase
1) The more cash the firm uses to repurchase shares, the less it has available to pay dividends.
2) By repurchasing, the firm decreases the number of shares outstanding, which increases its earnings and dividends per share.
118
Vn formula (Terminal value)
FCFn+1/rwaac-gfcf = ((1+gfcf)/(rwaac-gfcf)) x FCFn
119
Vn formula (Terminal value)
FCFn+1/rwaac-gfcf = ((1+gfcf)/(rwaac-gfcf)) x FCFn
120
Method of Comparables
Estimate the value of the firm based on the value of other, comparable firms or investments that we expect will generate very similar cash flows in the future.
121
Enterprise value multiples
V0/EBITDA or FCF/EBITDA/rwaac-gfcf
122
Limitations of multiples
First challenge: how to adjust for differences in expected future growth rates, risk, or differences in accounting policies.
2) Comparables only provide information regarding the value of a firm relative to other firms in the comparison set.
▪ Using multiples will not help us determine if an entire industry is overvalued.
123
Capital market line
Investors’ optimal asset allocation line. Rational investors form their portfolio at CML.
124
Effective after tax interest rate (formula)
r(1-Tc)
125
Determine share price with forward P/E
P/E x EPS = share price
126
