Beta calculation

Beta :
Beta measure the volatility of the firm/stock w.r.t market.
if ( Beta > 0) => more volatile .... else less volatile.

NetBeta value of stock x = abs(Long cash Beta) - abs(short cash beta)

Beta of x for market m= Covariance(stock x, Maket m) / variance(m)

eg :

X X% diff from mean
M M% Diff with mean return
