I've been investing in stocks for a while, but there's one concept I'm still not clear about. I often hear the term 'beta' in relation to stocks, but I don't fully understand what it means. Could someone explain what beta is in the context of stock investing?

When a stock has a beta value exceeding 1.0, it signifies that its price movements are more pronounced than those of the overall market.

This higher beta implies greater volatility, meaning the stock is likely to experience larger swings in price both upwards and downwards.

Conversely, a beta below 1.0 indicates that the stock is less volatile compared to the broader market.
