Systematic risk refers to that portion of total variability
in return caused by factors affecting the prices of all
securities. Economic, political, and sociological changes
are sources of systematic risk. Their effect is to cause
prices of nearly all individual common stocks and/or all
individual bonds to move together in the same manner.
