Russell 1,000 Stocks With the Highest and Lowest Betas

Stating the beta without giving any correlation factor is not terribly useful. What's the volatility of each of those stocks? How closely does any given stock on that list track the index? If you just went by beta alone you might very well invest in something like DHI that zigged when the market zagged, or worse, missed out on something like WFR.
