0is4eva | Reading 79, p. 794: "Any security with an estimated rate of return that plots above the SML would be considered under-priced because it implies that you ESTIMATED you would receive a rate of return on the security that is above its REQUIRED rate of return based on its SYSTEMATIC RISK." The reverse: an overpriced stock plots below the SML since it provides less return than the required rate of return based on its systematic risk. |

I passed! I did not get a chance to tell you before the exam - but your site was excellent. I will definitely take it next year for Level II.
