On the very first day Manshukh Mehta asked you to meet a client Mr Tapanlal requirements. Mr tapan lal is a big business and want

is appointed as trainee of the job your boss Mr and to understand his to invest his savings into

stock market. But as he is not having any professional qualification so he is not aware about the statistical analysis of risk and return. He does not want to invest only on the basis of market news and rumors but want a deep investigation with help of statistical analysis. He wants you to analyse some stocks and to measure their risk and return. As you have already done a course of business statistics and fully aware about the statistical analysis. You know very well that you can use the concept of arithmetic mean and standard deviation for calculating return and risk respectively. You can also calculate the correlation of any stock with BSE SENSEX with help of correlation and regression analysis. Following are the last six-month average monthly prices of five companies listed on Bombay Stock exchange.
