Fоr the next 6 questiоns: Stоcks A аnd B аre а part of the S&P500 value-weighted index (represented as M). The Sharpe ratio of the index is 0.43. Applying the single-index model (SIM) to the returns on the stocks in the index, you obtain the following results for stocks A and B:                         RA = 0.015 + 2.35RM + eA                      σ(eA) = 0.33      RB = 0.032 + 1.25RM + eB                      σ(eB) = 0.25                  σM = 0.20    What is the standard deviation (σA) of stock A?
