Beta for Aussie stocks?

[King_Junior]

I need to find the beta factor for some of the aussies stocks. Could someone let me know where to find them?

I browsed Yahoo Finance and it reported as "N/A" for beta under key staititics area.

Late reply but I use Google Finance to find the Beta. I searck for the stock in Google search like this: 'ASX:BHP' and then it gives you the link to BHPs info. you will then need to add/remove columns to select Beta. There is also a very quick way to compile a list with Etrade if you are a customer.


I was wondering if anyone uses beta in their everyday trading? I have a list of high beta ASX stocks that I have been backtesting with and so far the results are no different than regular stocks, maybe it's just my systems.

Hi Guys,

I didnt want to create another thread, but does anyone know if they generate a beta for different industry compositions.

E.g. The XJF (Financials) compared to the XJO or All Ords

I basically want to rank each sector from most defensive to least defensive in order of their beta.

Thanks

Looks like your spamming your site seeing as you have just posted one liners in about 4 or 5 threads.

Anyway moving on.....

If anyone knows if there is data for each individual index it would be much appreciated
