1、CHAPTER 5SECURITY-MARKET INDICATOR SERIESAnswers to Questions1.The purpose of market indicator series is to provide a general indication of the aggregate market changes or market movements. More specifically, the indicator series are used to derive market returns for a period of interest and then us
2、ed as a benchmark for evaluating the performance of alternative portfolios. A second use is in examining the factors that influence aggregate stock price movements by forming relationships between market (series) movements and changes in the relevant variables in order to illustrate how these variab
3、les influence market movements. A further use is by technicians who use past aggregate market movements to predict future price patterns. Finally, a very important use is in portfolio theory, where the systematic risk of an individual security is determined by the relationship of the rates of return
4、 for the individual security to rates of return for a market portfolio of risky assets. Here, a representative market indicator series is used as a proxy for the market portfolio of risky assets.2.A characteristic that differentiates alternative market indicator series is the sample - the size of th
5、e sample (how representative of the total market it is) and the source (whether securities are of a particular type or a given segment of the population (NYSE, TSE). The weight given to each member plays a discriminatory role - with diverse members in a sample, it would make a difference whether the
6、 series is price-weighted, value-weighted, or unweighted. Finally, the computational procedure used for calculating return - i.e., whether arithmetic mean, geometric mean, etc.3.A price-weighted series is an unweighted arithmetic average of current prices of the securities included in the sample - i
7、.e., closing prices of all securities are summed and divided by the number of securities in the sample.A $100 security will have a greater influence on the series than a $25 security because a 10 percent increase in the former increases the numerator by $10 while it takes a 40 percent increase in th
8、e price of the latter to have the same effect.4.A value-weighted index begins by deriving the initial total market value of all stocks used in the series (market value equals number of shares outstanding times current market price). The initial value is typically established as the base value and as
9、signed an index value of 100. Subsequently, a new market value is computed for all securities in the sample and this new value is compared to the initial value to derive the percent change which is then applied to the beginning index value of 100.5.Given a four security series and a 2-for-1 split fo
10、r security A and a 3-for-1 split for security B, the divisor would change from 4 to 2.8 for a price-weighted series.StockBefore Split PriceAfter Split PricesA $20$10B3010C2020D3030 Total100/4 = 2570/x = 25 x = 2.8The price-weighted series adjusts for a stock split by deriving a new divisor that will
11、 ensure that the new value for the series is the same as it would have been without the split. The adjustment for a value-weighted series due to a stock split is automatic. The decrease in stock price is offset by an increase in the number of shares outstanding.Before SplitStockPrice/Share# of Share

One way to visualize an unweighte
14、d series is to assume that equal dollar amounts are invested in each stock in the portfolio, for example, an equal amount of $1,000 is assumed to be invested in each stock. Therefore, the investor would own 25 shares of GM ($40/share) and 40 shares of Coors Brewing ($25/share). An unweighted price i
15、ndex that consists of the above three stocks would be constructed as follows:StockPrice/Share# of SharesMarket ValueGM$ 4025$1,000Coors25401,000Total$2,000A 20% price increase in GM:StockPrice/Share# of SharesMarket ValueGM$ 4825$1,200Coors25401,000Total$2,200A 20% price increase in Coors:StockPrice
16、/Share# of SharesMarket ValueGM$ 4025$1,000Coors30401,200Total$2,200Therefore, a 20% increase in either stock would have the same impact on the total value of the index (i.e., in all cases the index increases by 10%. An alternative treatment is to compute percentage changes for each stock and derive
17、 the average of these percentage changes. In this case, the average would be 10% (20% - 10%). So in the case of an unweighted price-indicator series, a 20% price increase in GM would have the same impact on the index as a 20% price increase of Coors Brewing.7.Based upon the sample from which it is d
18、erived and the fact that is a value-weighted index, the Wilshire 5000 Equity Index is a weighted composite of the NYSE composite index, the AMEX market value series, and the NASDAQ composite index. We would expect it to have the highest correlation with the NYSE Composite Index because the NYSE has
19、the highest market value.8.The high correlations between returns for alternative NYSE price indicator series can be attributed to the source of the sample (i.e. stock traded on the NYSE). The four series differ in sample size, that is, the DJIA has 30 securities, the S&P 400 has 400 securities, the
20、S&P 500 has 500 securities, and the NYSE Composite over 2,800 stocks. The DJIA differs in computation from the other series, that is, the DJIA is a price-weighted series where the other three series are value-weighted. Even so, there is strong correlation between the series because of similarity of
21、types of companies.9.Since the equal-weighted series implies that all stocks carry the same weight, irrespective of price or value, the results indicate that on average all stocks in the index increased by 23 percent. On the other hand, the percentage change in the value of a large company has a gre
22、ater impact than the same percentage change for a small company in the value weighted index. Therefore, the difference in results indicates that for this given period, the smaller companies in the index outperformed the larger companies.10.The bond-market series are more difficult to construct due t
23、o the wide diversity of bonds available. Also bonds are hard to standardize because their maturities and market yields are constantly changing. In order to better segment the market, you could construct five possible subindexes based on coupon, quality, industry, maturity, and special features (such
24、 as call features, warrants, convertibility, etc.).11.Since the Merrill Lynch-Wilshire Capital Markets index is composed of a distribution of bonds as well as stocks, the fact that this index increased by 15 percent, compared to a 5 percent gain in the Wilshire 5000 Index indicates that bonds outper
25、formed stocks over this period of time. 12.The Russell 1000 and Russell 2000 represent two different samples of stocks, segmented by size. The fact that the Russell 2000 (which is composed of the smallest 2,000 stocks in the Russell 3000) increased more than the Russell 1000 (composed of the 1000 la
26、rgest capitalization U.S. stocks) indicates that small stocks performed better during this time period. 13.One would expect that the level of correlation between the various world indexes should be relatively high. These indexes tend to include the same countries and the largest capitalization stock
27、s within each country.CHAPTER 5Answers to Problems1(a).Given a three security series and a price change from period t to t+1, the percentage change in the series would be 42.85 percent.Period tPeriod t+1Lauren$ 60$ 80Kayleigh2035Madison1825Sum$ 98$140Divisor33Average32.6746.671(b).Period tStockPrice

29、.The percentage change for the price-weighted series is a simple average of the differences in price from one period to the next. Equal weights are applied to each price change.The percentage change for the value-weighted series is a weighted average of the differences in price from one period t to
30、t+1. These weights are the relative market values for each stock. Thus, Stock C carries the greatest weight followed by B and then A. Because Stock C had the greatest percentage increase and the largest weight, it is easy to see that the percentage change would be larger for this series than the pri

32、nswers are the same (slight difference due to rounding). This is what you would expect since Part A represents the percentage change of an equal-weighted series and Part B applies an equal weight to the separate stocks in calculating the arithmetic average.2(c).Geometric average is the nth root of t
33、he product of n items.The geometric average is less than the arithmetic average. This is because variability of return has a greater affect on the arithmetic average than the geometric average. 3.Student Exercise4(a).Day 1CompanyPrice/ShareA12B 23C52Day 2 (Before Split) (After Split)CompanyPrice/Sha

But when a split occurs, the new
35、divisor ensures that the new value for the series is the same as it would have been without the split. Hence, the main effect of a split is just a repositioning of the relative weight that a particular stock carries in determining the index. For example, a 10% price change for company B would carry
36、more weight in determining the percent change in the index in Day 3 after the reverse split that increased its price, than its weight on Day 2.4(c).Student Exercise5(a).Base= ($12 x 500) + ($23 x 350) + ($52 x 250) = $6,000 + $8,050 + $13,000= $27,050Day 1= ($12 x 500) + ($23 x 350) + ($52 x 250)待添加

The index, however, is weighted by the relative market values.6.Price-weighted index (PWI)2002 = (20 + 80+ 40)/3 = 46.67To accounted for stock split, a new divisor must be calculated: (20 + 40 + 40)/X= 46.67X= 2.143 (new divisor after stock split)Pr
