If coefficient of Beta of Stock is 1, one unit change in market index cause one unit change in stock in same direction.
If coefficient of Beta of Stock is more than 1, one unit change in market index cause more than one unit change in stock in same direction.
If coefficient of Beta of Stock is less than 1 but greater than zero, one unit change in market index cause less than one unit change in stock in same direction.
