IJ, Rather than using beta (relative to the S&P 500) to compare the volatility of the NBI stocks relative to the Contest stocks, you could simply compute the standard deviations of the YTD percent numbers I post weekly for both the NBI & Contest median. Comparing the two standard deviations would give a pretty good idea of how much their volatility differs.
I’m not suggesting you do this Jim, but it shouldn’t take too much of your weekend if you were inclined to do so - another very big ;-)
Peace & good health,
Bulba
