  1. Risk Analysis and Technical Analysis Tanveer Singh Chandok (Director of Mentorship)

  2. What we have done so far • Efficient Market Hypothesis • Investing Styles (IC) • Time Value of Money • Financial Statement Analysis • Valuation and important terms • Important Ratios • Fundamental Analysis (Macro/Micro) • Intro to Fixed Income GTSF Investments Committee

  3. A quick review • The 3 main styles of investing • Value • Growth • Momentum • What is the difference between going long and short? How do we “short” a stock? • Different levels of market cap • Large • Mid • Small • What does “liquidity” mean and why is it so important? GTSF Investments Committee

  4. What we’re doing today • We use statistics to measure risk • Some basic concepts • Properties of data sets • Mean – “average” • Median - “middle number” • Mode –“occurs most often” • 0, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 • Standard Deviations • Normal Distributions GTSF Investments Committee

  5. What is “Risk”? • Uncertainty  Risk • What are we uncertain about? • Generally: • The more uncertain the cashflows of a particular investment are the higher the risk • The higher the risk, the higher the required interest rate • Thus: Higher Risk = Higher Rate of Return • Risk – return trade-off GTSF Investments Committee

  6. Terms • “Rate of Return” • “Sample” = our dataset • Sample mean returns • Sample variance of returns GTSF Investments Committee

  7. More terms • Sample covariance • Standard Deviation • Square root of variance = σ • Sample correlation GTSF Investments Committee

  8. Correlation Patterns GTSF Investments Committee

  9. Correlation Patterns GTSF Investments Committee

  10. Normal or “Gaussian” Distributions GTSF Investments Committee

  11. Compare to uniform distribution GTSF Investments Committee

  12. Characteristics of Probability Distributions • Mean • Most likely value – “Expected value” • Variance or Standard Deviation • Volatility – “Degree of deviation from the mean value” • Skewness • Degree of asymmetry in distribution • Kurtosis • Degree of fatness in tail area GTSF Investments Committee

  13. Standard Deviation • Defined by the following equation: • Step 1: Find the mean of the dataset • Step 2: Subtract the mean from each value • Step 3: Square the values from Step 2 • Step 4: Add up all the values from Step 3 • Step 5: Divide the value from Step 4 by (n-1) • Step 6: Take the square root of the value from Step 5 GTSF Investments Committee

  14. Standard Deviation as a measure of risk • Std. Dev. tells us what the normal distribution probability function looks like • Pros • Easy to calculate and implement • If return distribution is symmetric, the upside risk is the same as downside risk, and therefore standard deviation is a good measure of downside risk • If returns are normally distributed, standard deviation would be adequate in characterizing the risk • Upside risk vs. Downside risk GTSF Investments Committee

  15. Standard Deviation as a measure of risk • Cons • Investors are concerned about downside risk • Standard deviation includes both the above-average returns (upside risk) and the below-average returns (downside risk) • If returns are skewed, standard deviation is not the only relevant measure of risk • Holding expected return and standard deviation constant, investor would prefer positive skewed distribution GTSF Investments Committee

  16. Risk Practice Problems • You are thinking about investing in 2 companies. One of them (let’s call it ABC) has the following monthly returns • 4% • 2% • 3% • 1% • -8% • What is this stocks average return and standard deviation? GTSF Investments Committee

  17. Risk Practice Problems • The next company (DEF) has the following returns; • 1% • 2% • 1% • 3% • 2% • What is this stocks average return and standard deviation? • Which stock would you most likely invest in? • What other factors should influence your decision? GTSF Investments Committee

  18. More Risk! • What about a stock’s sensitivity to the market? • When the broader market is down,individual company stocks are often down, why is that? • Traders use stocks as a way to express their views on the market, often movements in stocks are not due to company news but market news GTSF Investments Committee

  19. Beta • The most common way to see how a stock moves in relation to the broader market (represented by the S&P 500) • Beta (or market risk) is a measure of a securities relative volatility as compared to the broader market • Beta > 1 means the stock is more volatile than the market • Beta < 1 means the stock is less volatile than the market GTSF Investments Committee

  20. Beta GTSF Investments Committee

  21. Beta Practice • Consider the following security beta’s; • 1.3 • 1.4 • .6 • 1.0 • .35 • 1.9 • Which stock will move the most in relation to the market? Which one will move the least? GTSF Investments Committee

  22. Using Beta to determine return • We previously calculated expected return by taking the average of past returns • With Beta we know how a security compares to the market return • Using this information we can calculate the E(r) of a security without knowing its previous returns • E(r) = Risk Free Rate + Beta (Market Risk Premium) • Market risk premium = Market return –Risk Free Rate GTSF Investments Committee

  23. CAPM • The use of Beta, Market Return and the Risk Free Rate to determine expected return is called the Capital Asset Pricing Model or CAPM • What do you think we use for the risk free rate? • If a stock’s beta is 1.2 and the market has returned 10% on average while the risk free is 2% what is the stock’s expected return? GTSF Investments Committee

  25. Alpha • If everything perfectly followed CAPM then we would be able to very accurately predict what a given stock would return • If this was true then we would not need actively managed funds to gain outsized returns • “The abnormal rate of return on a security or portfolio in excess of what would be predicted by an equilibrium model like the capital asset pricing model (CAPM)” • Alpha represents a greater return for lower risk GTSF Investments Committee

  26. Risk/Return Payoff • Which portfolio manager did a better job last year and why? • Bill - 25% return • Carl - 20% return • What does the information above NOT tell us about the returns of the portfolios in question? GTSF Investments Committee

  27. The Risk Return Payoff • RISK! • We haven’t accounted for the risk each manager took so we don’t know if they got those returns by picking smart investments or simply taking a lot of risk GTSF Investments Committee

  28. Risk Adjusted Returns • Let’s take another look at those returns • Bill – (25% return, stdev of 20%) • Carl – (20% return, stdev of 25%) GTSF Investments Committee

  29. What does the Sharpe Ratio Tell Us? • A sharpe ratio tells us how much return the portfolio gets for every “unit” of risk it takes • A sharpe ratio of > 1 means for every unit of risk we get more than 1 unit of return • A sharpe ratio of > 2 means that we are getting double the return for every unit of risk we take GTSF Investments Committee

  30. Where does “risk” come from? • Beta measures risk compared to markets • Alpha measures risk of individual assets in terms of excess return • If we hold multiple securities at the same time can we increase/decrease our risk? • Correlation - the degree to which two things move together • If we have a portfolio of highly correlated stocks then our entire portfolio will rise and fall at the same time GTSF Investments Committee

  31. Correlation • Ameasure of how closely two things move together GTSF Investments Committee

  32. Why We Care About Correlation GTSF Investments Committee

  33. Diversification • We can increase our portfolio’s risk/return relationship by diversifying • If we hold non-correlated assets then they will move separately eliminating moves cause by correlations • Say you have a portfolio of only Tech stocks (GOOG, APPL, MSFT) how would you diversify your holdings so a drop in the tech sector wouldn’t bankrupt you?
