0% of students got this wrong

EXPLANATION

Beta measures a fund's price movement relative to its benchmark. Beta = 1: fund moves in line with the market. Beta > 1: fund is more volatile than the market (amplifies market moves). Beta < 1: fund is less volatile than the market. Beta = 1.2 means when the market rises 10%, the fund typically rises 12%, and vice versa.
