Beta is less popular term in the investing world but it is still a big term in the investing field and thats why it helps to know what it means.
Beta is basically a measurement of a stock’s volatility when you compared it to the overall markets.
The beta of the market is on 1. And if a specific stock has its beta on 1.5. then it means that for every 1-point move in the market, the stock will receive 1.5 points.
