AnswerAnswer: : YesYes, if the correlation , if the correlation between the market and the stock is between the market and the stock is negative. Then, in a “beta graph”, the negative. Then, in a “beta graph”, the characteristic (regression) line will characteristic (regression) line will slope downward.slope downward.

Beta and Risk PremiumBeta and Risk Premium
A risk free asset has a beta of zero. When a risky asset is combined with a risk free
asset, the resulting portfolio expected return is a weighted average of their expected returns and the portfolio beta is the weighted average of their betas.
Consider various portfolios comprised of an investment in stock A with a beta () of 1.2 and expected return of 18%, and a Treasury bill with a 7% return. Compute the expected return and beta for different portfolios of stock A and a Treasury bill.

What happens if two assets have What happens if two assets have different reward-to-risk ratios?different reward-to-risk ratios?
Since systematic risk is all that matters in Since systematic risk is all that matters in determining expected return, the reward-to-risk determining expected return, the reward-to-risk ratio must be the same for all assets and ratio must be the same for all assets and portfolios. If not, investors would only buy the portfolios. If not, investors would only buy the assets (portfolios) that offer a higher reward-to-assets (portfolios) that offer a higher reward-to-risk ratio.risk ratio.
Because the reward-to-risk ratio is the same for Because the reward-to-risk ratio is the same for all assets, it must hold for the risk free asset as all assets, it must hold for the risk free asset as well as for the market portfolio.well as for the market portfolio.

The Security Market LineThe Security Market Line
The security market line is the line which gives the expected return-systematic risk (beta) combinations of assets in a well functioning, active financial market. In an active, competitive market in which only
systematic risk affects expected return, thethe reward-to-reward-to-risk ratio must be the same for all assets in the market.risk ratio must be the same for all assets in the market.
The slope of the SML is the difference between the expected return on the market portfolio and the risk-free rate, or, the market risk premium.
