#' calculate single factor model (CAPM) beta
#'
#' The single factor model or CAPM Beta is the beta of an asset to the variance
#' and covariance of an initial portfolio. Used to determine diversification potential.
#'
#' This function uses a linear intercept model to achieve the same results as
#' the symbolic model used by \code{\link{BetaCoVariance}}
#'
#' \deqn{\beta_{a,b}=\frac{CoV_{a,b}}{\sigma_{b}}=\frac{\sum((R_{a}-\bar{R_{a}})(R_{b}-\bar{R_{b}}))}{\sum(R_{b}-\bar{R_{b}})^{2}}}{beta
#' = cov(Ra,Rb)/var(R)}
#'
#' Ruppert(2004) reports that this equation will give the estimated slope of
#' the linear regression of \eqn{R_{a}}{Ra} on \eqn{R_{b}}{Rb} and that this
#' slope can be used to determine the risk premium or excess expected return
#' (see Eq. 7.9 and 7.10, p. 230-231).
#'
#' Two other functions apply the same notion of best fit to positive and
#' negative market returns, separately. The \code{CAPM.beta.bull} is a
#' regression for only positive market returns, which can be used to understand
#' the behavior of the asset or portfolio in positive or 'bull' markets.
#' Alternatively, \code{CAPM.beta.bear} provides the calculation on negative
#' market returns.
#'
#' The \code{TimingRatio} may help assess whether the manager is a good timer
#' of asset allocation decisions. The ratio, which is calculated as
#' \deqn{TimingRatio =\frac{\beta^{+}}{\beta^{-}}}{Timing Ratio = beta+/beta-}
#' is best when greater than one in a rising market and less than one in a
#' falling market.
#'
#' While the classical CAPM has been almost completely discredited by the
#' literature, it is an example of a simple single factor model,
#' comparing an asset to any arbitrary benchmark.
