Could you please explain to me what beta stock price is? I've heard it mentioned in financial discussions but I'm not entirely clear on its meaning. Is it related to the volatility of a stock? How does it differ from other measures of risk, such as alpha? And is it something that investors should consider when making investment decisions?

A beta value of 1 indicates that the stock moves in perfect sync with the market, experiencing equal gains or losses during market upswings and downturns.

A beta greater than 1 suggests that the stock is more volatile than the market, amplifying market movements, both positively and negatively.
