Then Friday closing prices are calculated. Weekly returns of Nifty and Shopers Stop were calculated. Weekly returns of Nifty were taken as \u201cX\u201d and weekly return of Shopers Stop were taken as \u201cY\u201d. Y was Regressed on x.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\">Data Analysis<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-US\">:<\/span><b> The Equation:<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><b>Shoppers Stop = 0.94465 + 0.45403 \u00d7 NIFTY<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">The above regression equation explains the relationship between the dependent variable (Shoppers Stop stock returns) and the independent variable (market returns) using 48 weekly observations.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"margin-top: 0cm\" start=\"1\" type=\"1\">\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\">The <b>beta (slope) coefficient is positive and very low<\/b>, indicating a weak positive relationship between market returns and Shoppers Stop\u2019s weekly returns. This implies that when market returns increase by 1 unit, Shoppers Stop returns increase marginally, reflecting low sensitivity to market movements.<\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\">The <b>t-statistic for the beta coefficient is low<\/b>, and the <b>p-value (0.193)<\/b> is greater than 0.05, indicating that the relationship between market returns and Shoppers Stop returns is <b>not statistically significant<\/b> at conventional significance levels.<\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\">The <b>R-square value of 0.037<\/b> shows that approximately <b>3.7% of the variation in Shoppers Stop\u2019s weekly returns<\/b> is explained by market movements, while the remaining <b>96.3% variation<\/b> is attributed to firm-specific and other external factors not included in the model.<\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\">The <b>F-statistic is 1.745<\/b>, with a <b>Significance F value of 0.193<\/b>, which is higher than 0.05.

Since the beta is less than one, the stock can be classified as a defensive or low-volatility stock. This makes Shoppers Stop more suitable for long-term investment, particularly for investors seeking stability and lower exposure to market risk rather than short-term speculative gains.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><b><span lang=\"EN-US\">Reference<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-US\">:<\/span> Mishra, P.
