Beta is a financial metric that measures the volatility or risk of an individual stock or asset in relation to the overall market. It indicates how much a stock’s price is expected to change in response to market movements.
A beta of 1 means the stock moves in line with the market, while a beta greater than 1 indicates higher volatility and risk, meaning the stock tends to move more than the market. Conversely, a beta less than 1 suggests the stock is less volatile than the market. A negative beta implies the stock moves in the opposite direction to the market.
