Which of the following statements regarding beta coefficient is correct?

According to the definition of beta coefficient,a stock with a high standard deviation will tend to have a high beta, which means that it contributes a relatively large amount of risk to a well-diversified portfolio.


The stand-alone risk of an individual stock, which is called its beta coefficient, b, is defined under the CAPM as the amount of risk that the stock contributes to the market portfolio.


According to the definition of beta coefficient, a stock with a high correlation with the market will also have a small beta, and hence be less risky.


We cannot obtain the beta coefficient based on the covariance between a stock and the market and the standard deviation of the market’s return.
