Homework Answers
Answer: In the case control study, relative risk can not be measured. It can only measure only odd ratio. In this case control study the incidence can not be calculated.
The retrospective case- control study mainly track the study of the investigate outcomes. The study consists of one group that is being affected and those who are not affected.

Beta is a measure of systematic risk. It is a relative risk measure to show you how sensitive the stock price is related to market movement, i.e., the S&P 500 index. When calculating beta, you need to regress y (stock return) against x (S&P 500 index return) and the coefficient of the x is the beta, please refer to the excel posted on module 6. I would like you to comment on the betas of the following ETFs: UGAZ, TVIX...
