There are two risky assets and a riskfree asset. The riskfree rate is 0.03. The first risky asset has expected rate of return 0.18 and standard deviation 0.3; the second risky asset 0.09 and 0.2. Their correlation is 0.1. A portfolio on the best feasible CAL has an expected return of 0.12. Then this portfolio's portfolio weight on the first risky asset is 0%. (Enter a percentage number and keep 3 decimal places).

Does the portfolio (1/3 of A and 2/3 of B) dominate the portfolio (2/3 of A and 1/3 of B)? b. Does the portfolio (1/2, 1/2) belong to the efficient frontier? c. If there were the possibility of lending and borrowing at 2%, would the portfolio (1/2, 1/2) belong to the new efficient frontier?
Suppose you are considering investing your entire portfolio in three assets A, B and C. You expect that after you invest, four possible mutually exclusive scenarios will occur, with associated returns (in %) for each of the three assets as listed below. The probability of each scenario is given below (Attached image). Find the expected returns and standard deviations of Asset A, B & C. (HINT: the expected return is given by the probability-weighted sum of returns in each scenario. The expected standard deviation is given by the square root of the probability-weighted sum of squared deviations from the expected return.) Is there any reason to invest in Asset A given its low expected return and high standard deviation?
Capital asset pricing model (CAPM) For the asset shown in the following table, use the capital asset pricing model to find the required return.
