Conclusion

Recommend: Astra Zeneca

Beta: 0.65192141.

This is due to having a low volatility as its beta is less than 1 and provides a higher security
compared to the other 4 companies in terms of return although, the reward won’t be as high. If we
recommend a company with the lowest beta, it indicates that there would be less risk, yet the return
would be very low thus, the security is weak. Therefore, the best stock to invest in is Astra Zeneca as
this company is the most effective overall to provide security and reducing risk out of the 5, we’ve
chosen.
