Re: Pooling of human capital for the \'Two Plus Two Portfolio\'
John, Yahoo finance is a terrible source for betas.
Better sources: US firms European firms Emerging markets Japan Austrailia, NZ, Canada They all (I think all) have betas from Value Line and 3 year regressions. The last update was in January, which makes it a lot more up to date than a lot of yahoo data. It's probably still missing some of the ETF's and maybe some others, but I'd be a lot more inclined to trust that the numbers are what they say they are. |
