ABSTARCT
This study examines the return based performance of the companies of financial
sector of Pakistan in stock market from 1st July 2005 to 30th June 2009. The analysis is
done by the construction of one portfolio consisting of 10 stocks of companies
relating to financial sector of different sector of Karachi Stock Exchange. The risky
ness of each stock of financial sector is measured to analyze whether small cap stocks
of financial sector of Pakistan are more volatile or not as compare to large cap stocks.
This is done by the construction of a manager universe benchmark and volatility of
each stock from its benchmark is analyzed. The analysis is done using non parametric
method, which is much more efficient than parametric method when distributions are
not normal. For this analysis of variation, various tools are used including ANOVA
Test under MET, Test of sources of variation and the Test of descriptive statistics. The
ANOVA Test is based on the comparison of mean returns and the risk associated with
these returns. The results of all the tests have shown that stocks of small capitalization
category have more fluctuation in returns as compared to stocks of large capitalization
category confirming that small cap stocks are more risky as compared to large cap
stocks. In the end, policy recommendations for investments are also provided to the
investors regarding their investments decisions in financial stocks based on their
ability and willingness to take risk.

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between firms financial
position and its risk and return and how risk affect return in portfolio choices.
1.1 Background:
Modern finance theory started from Markowitzs (1952) portfolio theory, which
predicts how individual investor allocates their assets by balancing the risk and return
tradeoffs. Based on this theory, Sharpes (1963), Lintner (1965) and Black (1965)
developed the so called capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM). For the first time their
theory clearly prescribes that it are the individual stocks co-movements with the
overall market variables that determine stocks expected returns (thus the stock prices)
postulating a simple linear relationship between a stocks expected price/ return and
its risk?
The CAPM has been under intensive scrutiny since birth. Early empirical studies
generally failed to reject the model. However in recent years one of the most
influential papers by Fama and French (1992) questioned the cross-sectional
predictability of the CAPM. Current evidence has shown that other factors have a
consistent and significance effect on common stock prices and return. Despite the
heated debate the CAPM still receives wide attention especially from the
practitioners. At the same time for good or bad we have at least learned that there
might be multiple other factors in determining the asset prices.
The association between size and average stock price is about as important as the
association between risk and average returns. Thus it is not surprising that there ha
seen immense growth in the papers investigating size effect and other empirical
regularities in average stock prices.
The size effect one of the most enigmatic finding in finance first reported by Banz
(1981), seems to provide strong evidence that the shares of firms with small equity
market values have on average higher stock prices than firm with large equity market
values. The apparent persistence of this effect is such that it has been accorded the
status of an anomaly.
Like many emerging markets the Pakistani capital market also suffers from
unsatisfactory
corporate
governance,
dubious
accounting
practice,
market
manipulation, and insider trading problems. Most investor has traded speculatively
with very short holding period. The turnover ratio of stocks at KSE has been very
high, showing that investor were interested more in short gains and ignored long term
investment objectives based on future profitability of a firm. Despite this the Karachi
Stock Exchange of the Pakistani capital market is the biggest and most liquid stock
exchange and was declared the best performing stock exchange of the world for the
year 2002. Such a unique investment environment provides a natural laboratory to
study the securities price issue and its relationship to firms size and to know whether
there is a size effect using Pakistani stock data.
1.2 Stock market review
A stock (also known as equity or a share) is a portion of the ownership of a
corporation. . It represents a claim on the company's assets and earnings. A share in a
corporation gives the owner of the stock a stake in the company and its
profits. Important features of the stock is its limited liability, which means that, as an
owner of a stock, one is not personally liable if the company is not able to pay its
debt. Owning stocks means that, no matter what the maximum one can loose is the
value of his investment.
A market is mechanism by which buyers and sellers interact to determine the price
and quantity of goods or services. A stock exchange, securities exchange is a
corporation or mutual organization which provides "trading" facilities for stock
brokers and traders, to trade stocks and other securities. Stock exchanges also provide
facilities for the issue and redemption of securities as well as other financial
instruments and capital events including the payment of income and dividends. The
securities traded on a stock exchange include: shares issued by companies, unit trusts
and other pooled investment products and bonds. To be able to trade a security on a
certain stock exchange, it has to be listed there. Usually there is a central location at
least for recordkeeping, but trade is less and less linked to such a physical place, as
modern markets are electronic networks, which gives them advantages of speed and
cost of transactions. Trade on an exchange is by members only. The initial offering of
stocks and bonds to investors is by definition done in the primary market and
subsequent trading is done in the secondary market. A stock exchange is often the
most important component of a stock market. Supply and demand in stock markets is
driven by various factors which, as in all free markets, affect the price of stocks.
There is usually no compulsion to issue stock via the stock exchange itself, nor must
stock be subsequently traded on the exchange. Such trading is said to be off exchange
or over-the-counter. This is the usual way that bonds are traded. Increasingly, stock
exchanges are part of a global market for securities.
The size of the world stock market is estimated at about $36.6 trillion US at the
beginning of October 2008. The world derivatives market has been estimated at about
$480 trillion face or nominal value, 12 times the size of the entire world economy.
Historian Fernand Braudel suggests that in Cairo in the 11th century, Muslim and
Jewish merchants had already set up every form of trade association and had
knowledge of many methods of credit and payment, disproving the belief that these
were originally invented later by Italians. In 12th century France the courratiers de
change were concerned with managing and regulating the debts of agricultural
communities on behalf of the banks. Because these men also traded with debts, they
could be called the first brokers. A common misbelieve is that in late 13th century
Bruges commodity traders gathered inside the house of a man called Van der Beurze,
and in 1309 they became the "Brugse Beurse", institutionalizing what had been, until
then, an informal meeting, but actually, the family Van der Beurze had a building in
Antwerp where those gatherings occurred; the Van der Beurze had Antwerp, as most
of the merchants of that period, as their primary place for trading. The idea quickly
spread around Flanders and neighboring counties and "Beurzen" soon opened in
Ghent and Amsterdam.
In the middle of the 13th century, Venetian bankers began to trade in government
securities. In 1351 the Venetian government outlawed spreading rumors intended to
lower the price of government funds. Bankers in Pisa, Verona, Genoa and Florence
also began trading in government securities during the 14th century. This was only
possible because these were independent city states not ruled by a duke but a council
of influential citizens. The Dutch later started joint stock companies, which let
shareholders invest in business ventures and get a share of their profits - or losses. In
1602, the Dutch East India Company issued the first shares on the Amsterdam Stock
Exchange. It was the first company to issue stocks and bonds.
The Amsterdam Stock Exchange (or Amsterdam Beurs) is also said to have been the
first stock exchange to introduce continuous trade in the early 17th century. The
Dutch "pioneered short selling, option trading, debt-equity swaps, merchant banking,
unit trusts and other speculative instruments, much as we know them. There are now
stock markets in virtually every developed and most developing economies, with the
world's biggest markets being in the United States, Canada, China (Hongkong), India,
UK, Germany, France and Japan.
1.2.1 Karachi Stock Exchange
The Karachi Stock Exchange or KSE is a stock exchange located in Karachi,
Pakistan. Founded in 1947, it is Pakistan's largest and oldest stock exchange, with
many Pakistani as well as overseas listings.
Karachi Stock Exchange is the biggest and most liquid exchange and has been
declared as the Best Performing Stock Market of the World for the year 2002. As on
December 31, 2008, 653 companies were listed with the market capitalization of Rs.1,
858,698.90 billion (US $ 23,527.83 billion) having listed capital of Rs.750.48 billion
(US $ 9.50 billion). The KSE 100 Index closed at 5865.01 on December 31, 2008.
KSE has been well into the 4th year of being one of the Best Performing Markets of
the world as declared by the international magazine Business Week. Similarly the
10
US newspaper, USA Today, termed Karachi Stock Exchange as one of the best
performing bourses in the world.
The exchange has pre-market sessions from 09:15am to 09:30am and normal trading
sessions from 09:30am to 03:30pm. It is the second oldest stock exchange in South
Asia.
Today KSE has emerged as the key institution of the capital formation
in Pakistan with:i. Listed companies 653, securities listed on the exchange 692:
ordinary share 653, Preference shares 14 and debt securities
(TFC's) 25.

KSE began with a 50 shares index. As the market grew a representative index was
needed. On November 1, 1991 the KSE-100 was introduced and remains to this date
the most generally accepted measure of the Exchange. The KSE-100 is a capital
weighted index and consists of 100 companies representing about 86 percent of
market capitalization of the Exchange.
11
In 1995 the need was felt for an all share index to reconfirm the KSE-100 and also to
provide the basis of index trading in future. On August 29, 1995 the KSE all share
index was constructed and introduced on September 18, 1995.
KSE has also introduced KSE-30 Index which is calculated using "Free Float Market
Capitalization Methodology". The primary objective of the KSE 30 Index is to have a
bench mark by which the stock price performance can be compared to over a period
of time. In particular, the KSE-30 Index is designed to provide investors with a sense
of how large company's scrip's of the Pakistan's equity market are performing
The stock market is one of the most important sources for companies to raise money.
This allows businesses to be publicly traded, or raise additional capital for expansion
by selling shares of ownership of the company in a public market. The liquidity that
an exchange provides affords investors the ability to quickly and easily sell securities.
This is an attractive feature of investing in stocks, compared to other less liquid
investments such as real estate.
History has shown that the price of shares and other assets is an important part of the
dynamics of economic activity, and can influence or be an indicator of social mood.
An economy where the stock market is on the rise is considered to be an up coming
economy. In fact, the stock market is often considered the primary indicator of a
country's economic strength and development. Rising share prices, for instance, tend
to be associated with increased business investment and vice versa. Share prices also
affect the wealth of households and their consumption. Therefore, central banks tend
to keep an eye on the control and behavior of the stock market and, in general, on the
smooth operation of financial system functions.
Exchanges also act as the clearinghouse for each transaction, meaning that they
collect and deliver the shares, and guarantee payment to the seller of a security. This
eliminates the risk to an individual buyer or seller that the counterparty could default
on the transaction.
12
The smooth functioning of all these activities facilitates economic growth in that
lower costs and enterprise risks promote the production of goods and services as well
as employment. In this way the financial system contributes to increased prosperity.
Stock exchanges have multiple roles in the economy, this may include the following:
1 Raising capital for businesses
The Stock Exchange provides companies with the facility to raise capital for
expansion through selling shares to the investing public.
2 Mobilizing savings for investment
When people draw their savings and invest in shares, it leads to a more rational
allocation of resources because funds, which could have been consumed, or kept in
idle deposits with banks, are mobilized and redirected to promote business activity
with benefits for several economic sectors such as commerce and industry, resulting
in stronger economic growth and higher productivity levels and firms.
3 Facilitating company growth
Companies view acquisitions as an opportunity to expand product lines, increase
distribution channels, hedge against volatility, increase its market share, or acquire
other necessary business assets.
4 Redistribution of wealth
Stocks exchanges do not exist to redistribute wealth. However, both casual and
professional stock investors, through dividends and stock price increases that may
result in capital gains, will share in the wealth of profitable businesses.
5 Corporate governance
By having a wide and varied scope of owners, companies generally tend to improve
on their management standards and efficiency in order to satisfy the demands of these
shareholders and the more stringent rules for public corporations imposed by public

Size effect on stock prices represents an unusual coincidence of interest among the
broad group of financial economist.
One of the most enigmatic empirical finding in the finance is the size effect first
reported by Banz which seems to provide strong evidence that the shares of the firm
with small equity market values have on average higher stock prices and returns than
firms with large equity market values. The apparent persistence of this effect is such
that it has been accorded the status of anomaly.

CHAPTER II
LITERATURE REVIEW
Imperial research over past years has provided evidence of the cross sectional
relationship between stock prices and certain fundamental variables being studied
extensively. In general, a positive relationship has been found between stock prices
and earning yields, cash flows yield and book to market ratio and size. Specially,
voluminous are the studied that document the size and prices effects and studies that
try to descent angle the two effects.
Basu (1977) finds that price earning ratios and risk adjusted returns are related , a
study perform by Letzemberger and Ramaswomy (1979) shows a significant positive
relationship between dividend yield and prices on common stocks. The existence of
the size effects some specific implication for both the CAPM and the efficient market
hypothesis. CAPM assumes that expected return from an asset is a function of its
price variance. This figure is usually reported as beta and is synonymous with risk.
This relationship is thought to be linear and positive, hence the adage high high risk,
high returns. Several assumptions were made by Sharp. (1964), Lintner (1965) and
moss in (1966) when they developed CAPM. First they assumed investors portfolio
will maintain a constant proportion between risky and risk free asset. The second
assumption is that all investors can lend or borrow money at the risk free rate.
A more establish theory known as the efficient market hypothesis also conflict with
the Banzs (1981). A capital market is said to be efficient if it fully correctly reflects
all relevant information in determining security prices. Thus it is impossible to make
economic profit by trading on the basis of such information. This is implied because
people are assumed to be rational. An indication of abnormally high profit well attract
investors and increase the demand for that security. In turn the price for that security
will increase eliminating access profits. Since the size of the company is public
information buying stocks on the basis of firm size should not lead to higher prices.
However, Banzs study indicates other wise. Banzs several approaches to testing this
size effect. One in particular seems to eliminate most econometric problems and yield
17
the most reliable results. First the companies are split into five portfolios depending
on size. Banzs significant and negative parameters for size, thus indicating that firms
with large market values have smaller results than small firms with comparable beta
figures.
A number of papers have analyzes the statistical tests in the papers of Benz
&Reinganum (1981). In particular Roll (1981) suggests that the stocks of small firms
are traded less frequently than the stocks of large firm so the estimates of risks from
stock prices will be biased downward. Christie & Hertzel (1981) argue that the size
effect could be due to non stationary in risk measures. The risk of a stock of levered
firm increases and the sock price decreases. Historical estimates that assume risk is
constant over time, understate the risk of levered stocks whose prices has fallen; and
thus average returns for stocks with low current value should be positive because risk
is underestimated. Still, adjusting for bias in risk estimates does not discount the size
effect.
Roll (1982) and Blume &Stambaugh (1983) examine the effects of the different
portfolio strategies implicit in alternative estimators of prices to portfolios of firms
stocks depending on the market equity. Since the magnitude of the size effect is
apparently sensitive to the technique used to calculate current value (price) both Roll
and Blume & Stamaugh question the empirical importance of this phenomenon. In
sum, several papers have attempted to explain the results of Banz & Reinganum. Basu
(1983) re-examines Reinganums results using a different sample period and a
different procedure for creating portfolios of stocks ranked on both size and E/P
ratios. He found that prices of stocks of firms with low market values are riskier than
larger firms stocks. Basu contradicts Reinganum and finds that both the size and the
E/P effect are indications of deficiencies in the CAPM, not a sign of market
inefficiency.
Keim (1983) and Brown, Keidon & Marsh (1983) provide new evidence to the time
series behavior of the size effect. Keim notes that the average price of a portfolio of
small firms stocks is large in January and much smaller for rest of the year. About half
of the annual size effect occurs in January and about 25% during the first five days of
18
trading of January. Keim finds that size effect exhibits seasonality. Brown, Kleidon
&Marsh examine the behaviors of the size effects over time, using data from
different sample periods, thus speculate about the type of explanations that are
consistent with a time varying size effect.
Several papers examine the January size effect using international data. The size
effect has also been identified empirically for the UK by Levis (1985&1989) and
Fong (1993). Brown Keim, Kleidon & Marsh analyze the prices of Australian stocks,
since the typical fiscal year end for tax purposes in June 30 in Australia. Other papers
that examine the relation between firm size, tax-loss selling and seasonality in stock
prices include Gultekin & Gultekin (1982) who examine prices of Toronto and
Montreal stock exchanges and find higher average prices in January especially for
small stocks. However, this phenomenon seems to exist both before and after 1972,
when Canada imposed the capital gains tax. Thus they concur that the tax effect does
not fully explain the size effect.
Fama and French(1992) argued that size play a dominant role in explaining cross
sectional differences in expected prices and returns from firms and they proposed an
alternative model that includes apart from market factor, a factor related to size and a
factor related to B/M(Book value/Market value)
Lakonishok, Schleifer, and Vishny (1994) suggest that the high prices associated with
high market equity stocks are generated by investors who incorrectly extrapolate the
past earning growth rates of firms. They suggest that investors are overly optimistic
about firms, which have done well in the past and overly pessimistic about those that
have done poorly. Lakonishok, Schleifer, and Vishny also suggest that high market
equity stocks are more glamorous then low market equity stocks and may thus attract
nave investors who push up prices and raise the expected returns of these securities.
In other words NSV find evidence that values stregies higher prices not because
fundamentally riskier, But because these straggles explode the sub optimal behaviors
of the typical investors. The LSV story also supported by cai (1997) and cahangy,
Mcleavey and Rhee (1995) for Japan and by Gregory, harris, and moich (2003) for the
UK.
19
Knez and Ready (1997) used the Robest Fama and Macbeth (1973) procedure in order
to postulate the influential to help to uncover why size and market worth appear to be
useful for explaining cross sectional variation and prices and returns. They find that
the risk premium of size that was estimated by Fama and French completely disappear
when the one percent most extreme observations are tempt each month. finally they
argued that further investigation are these result could lead to end and understanding
of economic forces underplaying the size effect and may also yield important inside
into how firms growth. On the other hand, Daniel and Titmen, (1997) find evidence
that the return premium on small capitalization and high book-to-market stocks does
not arise because of the co-movements of these stocks with pervasive factors. It is the
characteristic rather then the covariance structure (risk) of returns that appear to
explain the cross sectional variation in stock prices and return.
Lew and Bassalou (2000) provides that firm size and market equity are related to
future economic growth , furthermore, Vassalou shows that much of the ability of size
and equity to explain asset is due to news related to future gross domestic product
growth.
For developing capital markets in general and Pakistani markets in particular
empirical evidence on equilibrium models are few. Khilji (1993) and Hussain and
Uppal (1998) investigated the distributional characteristics of stock return in the
Karachi Stock Exchange, concluding that the return behaviour cannot be adequately
modeled by a normal distribution. Hussain (2000) found no evidence of the day of the
week anomaly and concluded that for the period January 1989 to December 1993 the
absence of this predictability pattern implied efficiency of the market. Ahmad and
Zaman (2000) using sectoral monthly data from July 1992 to March 1997 found that
some of the CAPM implications are valid in the Karachi Stock Market. They found
evidence in favor of positive expected return for investors but speculative bubbles
were also indicated. Khilji (1994) found that the majority of return series are
characterized by non-linear dependence. Ahmad and Rosser (1995) used an ARCH-inMean specification to study risk return relationship using sectoral indices. Attaullah
(2001) tested APT in the Karachi Stock Exchange using 70 randomly selected stocks
20
21
relating to three central issues. First, they address the issue of diversification, focusing
on an APT, factor model framework. Second, they have discussed the observablity of
estimation risk and describe research experimental designs that should encompass the
existence of estimation risk and reveal it in the data. Finally, they suggested how
exploiting contemporaneous return observations on high and low information
securities to aid in the measurement of return parameters for low information
securities.
According to the analysis of Little (2008), Small cap stocks are risky because the
economic changes or economic reversals have a great impact on smaller companies
which usually do not have enough resources to survive during difficult time. It means
that the chance of failure of small cap companies is more than large cap companies.
On the other hand, there are various benefits associated with the investment in small
cap stocks. The return of small cap stocks is higher than that of large cap stocks
because of higher risk associated with these stocks due to higher fluctuations in the
price. Small cap stocks are more nimble and react quickly to any market and
technological changes.
Huang (2004) analyzed cross country return correlations and conducted asset pricing
test on three different size based portfolios over the stocks of nine different countries
for the period of 1980 to 2004. He found that large cap stocks show significant comovement with across countries while on the other hand, small cap stocks show small
average correlation relative to both small cap and large cap stocks across countries.
The asset pricing test showed that large cap stocks are priced globally while the global
pricing is rejected for small cap stocks.
Early studies relating the small cap and large cap stocks support the initial hypothesis.
Solnik (1974) and Stehle (1977) conducted a test on large cap stocks from U.S and
other developed countries and found that large cap stocks carry fewer variations in
their price as compared to other stocks.
Fedorov and Sarkissian (2000) analyzed the variation of small cap stocks and large
cap stocks of Russian equity market. They found that the degree of variation is weaker
22
for portfolios of less diversified industries and for smaller-sized portfolios, but is
stronger for stocks that have overseas listings. According to Huang (2004), large cap
stocks of many countries are more likely to be cross-listed in foreign equity markets,
so these stocks have more investor recognition and face less direct or indirect
investment barriers as compared to small cap stocks. While large cap stocks are
exposed to more risk as compared to small cap stocks which only face local risk.
Guidolin and Nicodano (2005) investigated the effect of variance risk on the portfolio
choices of investors, considering the assets of European and North American small
equity portfolios. According to Guidolin and Nicodano , small cap stocks are well
known to show asymmetric risk across bull and bear markets. They found that small
cap stocks imply above-average levels of variance risk, which may significantly
reduce their appeal in the portfolio. Various researches on small cap stocks show that
the cross-sectional distribution of the equity risk premium is related to variance risk
[Harvey and Siddique, 2000; Barone-Adesi, Gagliardini, and Urga (2004)]. The size
of the U.S. small cap premium has been examined for more than twenty years. Pastor
(2000) reported that a small cap portfolio (consisting of small firms) paid 0.17% per
month in excess of the risk-adjusted return on a large cap portfolio (composed of large
firms) from 1927 to 1996.
There has been a number of recent studies of the FED model, including Asness
(2003), Durr and Giot (2005), Estrada(2006), Gwilym et al (2006), Hjalmarsson
(2004), Jansen and Wang (2004), Koivu et al (2005), Maio (2005), Malkiel (2003),
Salomons (2004) and Thomas (2005). Asness who studied the period from 1926 to
2002 found no long term (10 and 20 years) predictive power of absolute real stock
returns using the FED model.
For shorter periods, the predictive power was better but still at very low levels. For
the more recent period, the FED model did a better job explaining actual market
behavior than in the earlier period. Like Campbell and Shiller (1998, 2001) before
him, Asness found that for long-term predictions of absolute stock returns, P/E alone
did a better job than the FED model.

According to Chang and Thomas (1989), the author states that, this study examines
the impact of diversification strategy on risk and return in diversified firms. Following
an assessment of previous research on strategic risk, relationships between risk,
return, and diversification strategy are hypothesized. Regression analysis shows that
differences in risk-return performance among diversified firms are more closely
associated with structural factors associated with markets and businesses than with the
particular diversification strategy chosen. Returns also influence the choice of
diversification strategies which, in turn, do not get rewarded with higher profits. A
curvilinear risk-return relationship is also observed which is consistent with previous
theoretical suggestions. Implications for the strategic management of risk are then
drawn.
According to Bettis and Mahajan (1985), they have studies many firms on the base
sample of 80 firms; this paper examines the risk/return performance of related and
unrelated diversified firms at the level of accounting data. The results suggest that
although on the average related diversified firms outperform unrelated diversified
firms, related diversification offers no guarantee of a favorable risk/return
performance. (Many low performers are related diversifiers.) In fact, different
diversification strategies can result in similar risk/return performance. However, a
favorable risk/return performance is extremely hard to achieve with unrelated
diversification. The study identifies diversified firms that have managed to
simultaneously reduced risks and increase returns. The results indicate that these firms
differ from other firms on some managerially useful dimensions. The differences
suggest clues to guide other diversified firms to improve their risk/return
performance.
Analysis of Bell, (1995), expected utility theory is widely acknowledged to be a
rational approach to making decisions involving risk. Yet the methodology gives no
explicit role to measures of risk and return. In this paper we identify those families of
utility functions that are compatible with a risk-return interpretation. From these
families we deduce utility-compatible measures of risk. (Risk; Return; Utility;
Investments)
24
According Fong and Vasicek, (2000), the target value of an immunized portfolio at the
horizon date defines the portfolio's target rate of return. If interest rates change by
parallel shifts for all maturities, the portfolio's realized rate of return will not be below
the target value. To the extent that non-parallel rate changes occur, however, the
realized return may be less than the target value. The relative change in the end-ofhorizon value of an immunized portfolio resulting from such an arbitrary rate change
will be proportional to the value of its immunization risk. Immunization risk equals
the weighted variance of times to payment around the horizon date, hence depends on
portfolio composition. For example, immunization risk will be low if portfolio
payments cluster around the end of the horizon and high if payments are widely
dispersed in time. One may minimize the extent to which a portfolio's realized return
differs from its target return by minimizing the portfolio's immunization risk (while
keeping the portfolio's duration equal to the remaining horizon length). Although risk
minimization is the traditional objective of immunization, the immunization risk
measure may also be used to optimize the risk-return tradeoff. The standard deviation
of an immunized portfolio's rate of return over the investment horizon will be
proportional to the value of its immunization risk. Thus an investor may choose from
immunized portfolios of equal duration a portfolio with a high level of immunization
risk in order to maximize his expected return.
The empirical studies have shown the importance of the FED Model by emphasizing
the how much this model is considered important by the investors due to mostly one
reason that is the simplicity of the model. Among practitioners, the use of the
original FED model has been more as an illustrative tool of market sentiment rather
than a positivistic prediction model. Furthermore, the market uses the FED model
mostly as a relative valuation tool rather than as an absolute valuation model.

Empirical studies have being done on a large collection of countries including
Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Japan,
Switzerland, Netherlands, United Kingdom and the United States ( Durre and Giot,
2004).

2.1 Hypothesis
We intend to test the hypothesis that does risk affect return in portfolio choices that
differ with various characteristic like size, type and volume of trade.

CHAPTER III
DATA & METHODOLOGY
The data for the analysis is collected from Karachi stock exchange. As the stocks of
financial sector are analyzed dynamically and risk is measured by classifying the
stocks of financial sector into small cap and large cap stocks, so the stocks of the
companies of financial sector listed on Karachi stock exchange are selected on the
basis of their market capitalization. For the analysis of variation, non parametric
method is used. According to Siegel (2004), non parametric methods are the statistical
procedures for hypothesis testing that do not require a normal distribution.
Furthermore, non parametric method is more efficient than parametric methods when
distributions are not normal [Siegel (2004)]. In the first step, the stocks are divided
into two portfolios. The portfolio consists of 10 stocks and data has been collected for
the last 5 years that are 2005, 2006,2007,2008,2009. It is determined from analysis
that market capitalization of these selected stocks did not remain same during last five
years, that is why the assumptions on the market capitalization value of these stocks is
made on the basis of market capitalization value on 6th march 2009. The data price
data of 20 stocks is collected from 1 July 2005 to 30 June 2009.
27
According to Walpole (2000), Mean is the average value of series and is obtained by
adding up series and dividing it by the number of observations. Median is the middle
value or is the average of two middle values of the series. The median is a strong
measure of the center of the distribution that is less sensitive to outliers than the mean.
The difference between the mean value of each stock and stock-40 index shows the
riskiness of that particular stock. Furthermore, the difference between mean value and
median value of stocks of each stock and stock-40 index also shows the risk as well as
the return of each stock [Walpole (2000)].
3.1.1 Equality Test
Afterwards the hypothesis test by classification is done on the data for which mean
equality test is used. This test allows to analyze the equality of the means, medians,
and variances across sub samples (or subgroups) of a single series. The tests assume
that the sub samples are independent.
3.1.2 Mean Equality Test
This test is based on a single-factor, between-subjects, analysis of variance (ANOVA).
The purpose of this test is that if the subgroups have the same mean, then the
variability between the sample means (between groups) should be the same as the
variability within any subgroup (within group).

and
is the overall
sample mean. According to Siegel (2004), The F-statistic for the equality of means
according to the assumption that the subgroup means are identical is computed as:
is the total number of observations. The F-statistic has an Fnumerator degrees of freedom and
denominator degrees
of freedom under the null hypothesis of independent and identical normal distribution,
with equal means and variances in each subgroup.
When the subgroup variances are heterogeneous, the Welch (1951) version of the test
statistic is used. The purpose is to create a modified F-statistic that accounts for the
unequal variances. Using the Cochran (1937) weight function,
The numerator of the adjusted statistic is the weighted between-group mean squares
and the denominator is the weighted within-group mean squares[Cochran (1937)].

Under the null hypothesis of equal means but possibly unequal variances,
approximate F-distribution with

Ordinary Least Squares on the concatenated groups. If the model yields large standard
errors (small T-Stats), this could be a warning flag that the groups are not all that
homogenous and a more advanced approach like Random Effects Model may be more
appropriate.
3.1.4 Correlation
In statistics, correlation and dependence are any of a broad class of statistical
relationships between two or more random variables or observed data values.
Familiar examples of dependent phenomena include the correlation between the
physical statures of parents and their offspring, and the correlation between the
demand for a product and its price. Correlations are useful because they can indicate a
predictive relationship that can be exploited in practice. For example, an electrical
utility may produce less power on a mild day based on the correlation between
electricity demand and weather. Correlations can also suggest possible causal, or
mechanistic relationships; however statistical dependence is not sufficient to
demonstrate the presence of such a relationship.

Explanation:
HO: Beta is equal to zero
H1: Beta is not equal to zero.
From the table 4.1, we found that the coefficient of Risk, is positive but the
statistically it is significant. Thus the test has been rejected.
At 10% significance level Ho is rejected. So we can say that is significant.

Chapter V
Conclusion and Recommendations
5.1 Conclusion
In this study we make several contributions to our understanding of how investors can
minimize their risk and maximize their returns. In this study, the return
based
69
These results supported the argument that small cap stocks of financial sector of
Pakistan are more volatile as compared to large cap stocks which means that small
cap stocks are more risky as compared to larger cap stocks. The long term average
return of large cap stocks is higher than the average return of small cap stocks. These
results lead me to recommend that the investors who want to invest for long period of
time pursuing minimum risk and high return, should invest in large cap stocks while
those investors who want to invest for shorter period of time and are willing to take
risk are recommended to invest in small cap stocks, they will be able to get higher
returns as compared to large cap stocks. So, the crux is that large cap stocks are
suitable for long term investments while small cap stocks are suitable for short term
investments.
5.2 Recommendations
1. Further researchers should be made on the topic, for the sake of continuing the
working of this research.
2. Purchase of common stock should be done when a company is up-grading
itself: as it is the time when the companys share price is lower and its future
earnings will be more.
3. Decisions for stock purchase should not be made by just considering the
market value of equity: as the companys other internal and external factors
have high significance in determining stock returns.
4. If annual sales of a company are high, the wrong decision regarding its stock
purchase should not be made.
5. A company high variation in the market value of equity should not be
considered good for investment.
