Thus we do empirical study with the using of CAPM, Sharpe ratio and Jensen index. As a result, the abnormal returns of the two pharmaceutical companies are significantly different,the stock portfolio is significantly superior to the cash, and the longer the holding periods, the more obvious the advantages. And then we put forward the relevant suggestions.
