This function tests the significance of the coefficients (alpha and beta) estimated by the CAPM.

#' The t-statistic and corresponding two-sided p-value are calculated differently for the alpha and beta coefficients

If the p-value is less than the coefficients confidence level, the null hypothesis is rejected meaning that the coefficients is significant. If the p-value is greater than the specified confidence level, the null hypothesis cannot be rejected.

Value

TRUE if the null hypothesis is rejected (i.e. the estimated coefficient is significant) FALSE if the null hypothesis cannot be rejected (i.e. the estimated coefficient is not significant)
