Their study shows that stocks with higher exposure to market movements tend to exhibit higher volatility. This supports the use of beta as a key measure to understand how individual stocks, such as SBI, move in relation to the overall market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 16.0pt;line-height: 115%\">Article 2:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 16.0pt;line-height: 115%\">Sharpe (1964) introduced the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), which establishes a linear relationship between stock returns and market returns. According to the model, beta measures a stock\u2019s sensitivity to market changes. This framework is widely used to analyze the relationship between stocks like SBI and market indices such as the NIFTY 50.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 16.0pt;line-height: 115%\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><b><span style=\"font-size: 16.0pt;line-height: 115%\">Data Analysis<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 16.0pt;line-height: 115%\">Weekly closing prices of SBI and the NIFTY 50 were collected from the NSE website for the study period.

The beta value of 0.97234 indicates that SBI\u2019s stock returns move almost in proportion to market movements, showing high sensitivity to changes in the NIFTY 50. The regression model is significant, as reflected by the F-statistic of 23.9078 and a p-value of 1.33E-05, which is significant at the 1% level. The R\u00b2 value of 0.346953 implies that about 34.7% of the variation in SBI\u2019s returns is explained by market movements, while the remaining variation is due to other firm-specific and economic factors. Overall, SBI can be considered a market-linked stock and is suitable for investors who expect favourable market conditions, particularly for short-term investment decisions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-indent: 36.0pt\"><span style=\"font-size: 16.0pt;line-height: 115%\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>STUTI BALID Introduction State Bank of India (SBI) is India\u2019s largest public sector bank and a key constituent of the NIFTY 50 index.
