Question

Calculate monthly returns for SP500, JPMorgan Chase & Co., Bank of America Corporation, Wells Fargo & Company, and Citigroup Inc.

Estimate a regression line using returns of JPMorgan Chase & Co. as dependent variable and returns of SP500, Bank of America Corporation, Wells Fargo & Company, and Citigroup Inc.as independent variables.

Interpret the estimated coefficients of your regression line and discuss their finance implications, in writing, in 6 lines in a Word file.

Regression Equation

JPM = 20.4 + 1.264 * BAC + 0.573 * WFC + 0.361 * C - 0.01488 * SP500

Interpritation of estimated coefficients-

The intercept 20.4 represent the y intercept that is the value of y takes when all independent variables are zero.

The slope -0.0148 it denotes the number of units JPM changes(increases) when BAC changes (increases) one unit keeping all another independent variables zero.

The slope 0.537 it denotes the number of units JPM changes(increases) when WFC changes(increases) one unit keeping all another independent variables zero.

The slope 0.361 it denotes the number of units JPM changes (increases)when C changes (increases) one unit keeping all another independent variables zero.

The slope -0.0148 it denotes the number of units JPM changes(decreases) when SP500 changes(decreases) one unit keeping all another independent variables zero.
