Hello,

I have calculated the daily mean return of Z1P.AX and ASX200 (market) and standard deviation.I have attached the screenshots of excel data just to help you to know the daily mean return and standard deviation of both the companies.

I just need help with the part 2 that is mentioned below.

Please let me know if you need further information.

In thehistorical datatab "file Attached", download the daily stock prices of your company from1st January 2020 to 31st May 2020. Using the adjusted close (Adj. close) column which is the daily closing price, compute the daily stock returns in the above sample period.

Repeat the steps in the italic paragraph above but now using ASX200 in the following link.

Using the daily returns for your company and ASX200 (i.e. market) and assuming a daily risk-free rate of 0%, perform the following:

1) Calculate and compare the mean daily returns and standard deviation of your chosen firm and ASX200.

2) Looking at the risk and reward trade-off, do you think that your stock is more or less risky than than ASX200 during the sample period?
