Can you explain how to approach this question, and formula's

I am terribly confused

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

RHD .02+0.80RM+eHD

R-squared .6

RML =-0.03+1.50RM+eML

R-squared .4

M .20

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

  • What is the standard deviation of each stock? What is the systematic risk of each stock? What are the covariance and correlation coefficient between HD and ML?
  • For portfolio P with investment proportion of 0.3 in HD and 0.7 in ML, calculate the systematic risk, non-systematic risk and total risk of P.
