Explanatory Answer

We are given that, Daily Share Price Variability (SPV) is defined as (Day’s high price - Day’s low price) / (Average
of the opening and closing prices during the day)
Calculating it for the stocks
Stock A: 1200/2000=3/5
Stock B: 600/1850=60/185
Stock C: 600/1000=3/5
Stock D: 900/750=90/75=6/5
Stock E: 300/1200=1/4
Stock F: 800/1700=8/17
Stock G: 900/1450=90/145
We need to check for stocks greater than 0.5 on that day,
Stock A, Stock C, Stock D, Stock G have SPV greater than 0.5 that day.
Hence, the answer is 4.
