• Investment and speculation involve purchase
of assets like shares and securities.

speculation with respect to three factors, viz.,
risk, capital gain and time period.
Investment
and
speculation
If a person buys a stocks for its dividend, he
may be termed as an investor. If he buys with
the anticipation of a price rise in the future and
the hope of selling it again, he would be termed
as speculator. The dividend line between
speculation and investment is very thin because
people buy stocks for dividends and capital
appreciation.

term investment in a game or

Market risk : Variations in
prices sparked off due to real
social, political and economic
events is referred to as market
risk .Market risk arises out of
changes in demand and supply
pressures in the market
following the changing flow of
news or expectations .
Interest rate risk :Generally

move inversely with changes
in the rate of interest. The
market activity and investor
perceptions are influenced by
changes in the interest rate
which turn depend on the
nature of stocks, bonds, loans

the credits worthiness of the
issuer of the securities.

cost of production due to wage
rise, rise in prices of raw
material etc. There is a
possibility of prices of desired
goods and services going up due
to inflation .

and does not impact the economy as a whole.
• By diverting the portfolio or the business one can avoid the
risk and does not have the bad effect of the entire economy in
case of systematic risks.
• Unlike systematic risks, the factors are majorly internal and
can be removed by taking internal measures.
24. Disadvantages:

unsystematic risk can act as a hazard to the particular industry
or to the business.

avoided and it takes a long time to settle.
• Change of demand, change in preference of consumer taste
may happen when the product is not available to the consumer
• Any kind of risk is unacceptable to the economy, be it
systematic or unsystematic. The overall impact of the situation
becomes negative to the common masses.
25. Limitations:
• The scale of operation is lower compared to the systematic
risk; thus, the involvement of the government is also less.
• Because of its nature, the policymakers neglect the situations
and does not comes under the limelight
• The persons involved with the hazards are less in number
compare to the systematic risks and thus monetary
compensation is also less or nil in case of unsystematic risks.
27. Standard Deviation:

measure the amount of historical volatility
• Associated with an investment relative to its annual rate of
return.

expected historical normal returns.

security or an industrial sector has relative to the whole stock
market.

time step with the market.

• Beta<1
• Beta>1
29. Value at risk:
• Value at risk is a statistical measure used to assess the level of
risk associated with a portfolio or company.

of confidence for a specified period.
