We know “BETA” is a company-specific risk index. Which of the following is not true?
1) It is a financial index that indicates the level of the volatility of one company’s stock price in the market.
2) If the Beta of a company is larger than 1, the company’s stock performance is considered more volatile than that of the market.
3) Since Beta is a company specfic risk-index, it can be controlled and maintained internally by the management of a company.
4) Companies whose stocks are growing faster than the entire market (or economy) usually carry lower beta values due to their growth potential.
