The two most important factors influencing share/security pricing are expected risk and projected return. In general, the projected average return is higher for riskier investments. Practically speaking, risk is the likelihood and magnitude of financial loss. The volatility of a fund's price over time is a good statistical proxy for this. Beta and standard deviation are two ways to describe market volatility. Beta measures the fund's volatility in comparison to other funds, whereas standard deviation measures the fluctuation in the fund's share price over time. Standard deviation, on the other hand, solely characterises the fund in question and not how ... Read More

Time to Live (TTL) is a term used in computer science to describe how long a network packet will contain data. It is a value inside the packet header that represents the most router hops a packet may make before being dropped. When a packet travels through a network, it is forwarded from one router to another until it arrives at its final destination. The packet header's TTL value decreases with each router it passes through. The packet is dropped and not transmitted any further when the TTL is 0, halting its endless circulation. Time to Live (TTL) The TTL ... Read More
