The variance ratio (VR) can be used to determine whether returns satisfy the efficient market hypothesis (EMH). Let n = 5 and r5,t be the five period log return at time t, where t = 1, 2,..., T. 1. Express (r5,t — Ã5) in terms of deviations of the relevant one period log returns from their respective means. Denote 75 to be the mean of the five period log return.
Question 1 Are the following statements true or false? Provide a short justification for your answer. (You are evaluated on your justification.) Remember that a statement is false if any part of the statement is false. A single correct counterexample is sufficient to show that a statement is false. a) assets A, B, C, with expected returns and standard deviations: Suppose you are a mean-variance optimizer. The risk-free rate is 3%. There are three risky E [řa] = 10%, SD [FA] = 5% E [řB] = 15%, SD [řB] = 7% E [řc] = 12%, SD [řc] = 9% You cannot invest in all three risky assets. Instead, you have to choose whether to invest in only assets (A, B), or only assets (A, C). Asset B mean-variance dominates asset C, since it has higher return and lower standard deviation than asset C. Thus, as long as you are risk-averse, you would always prefer the set of assets (A, B) to the set assets (A, C). b) the same market B's. The covariance matrix between A, B, C is: Suppose the CAPM holds. Consider…

Describe what is meant by measures of dispersion: standard deviation and variance. How can this be used when a trader is developing a strategy?
Which of the following statements are correct? I.The standard deviation is a measure of risk.II.The variance of yearly returns is roughly the variance of monthly returns multiplied with 12.III.To decide whether asset A is more risky than asset B we can either use their standard deviations or their variances.
