Following is information for the required returns and standard deviations of returns for A, B, and C. The correlation coefficients for each pair also are shown below in a matrix. Which is the portfolio you will recommend AB, AC, or BC, and why? A B C Required Rate of return 7% 10% 20% Standard Deviation 33% 54% 90% Coefficient A,B 0.16 Coefficient A,C 0.19 Coefficient B,C 0.17
An asset has normally-distributed returns, with mean of 10.6% and standard deviation of 14.8%. What is the 2% VaR (value at risk) return? Enter answer in percents.
Consider two portfolios, Portfolio A and Portfolio B, with the following performance metrics: - Portfolio A has a Sharpe Ratio of 0.8, a Treynor Ratio of 1.2, and a Jensen's Alpha of 0.5. - Portfolio B has a Sharpe Ratio of 1.2, a Treynor Ratio of 0.9, and a Jensen's Alpha of -0.2. Which of the following statements is correct regarding the performance of these portfolios? Portfolio A has a higher risk-adjusted return when the risk is measured by the beta. Portfolio B outperforms the risk-adjusted return suggested by CAPM. Portfolio A and B have similar risk-adjusted returns, but Portfolio B exhibits negative abnormal returns. Portfolio B has a higher risk-adjusted return when the risk is measured by the standard deviation. Portfolio A outperforms Portfolio B in terms of both risk-adjusted return and abnormal returns suggested by CAPM.
Possible returns and their probabilities for an asset is given in the table below. The expected return is 30.25%. Calculate the standard deviation of the asset's return. Probability 0.40 0.45 0.15 13.92% O 17.84 % 18.55% O 19.09% 16.59% Return 0.52 0.17 0.12
The expected return for asset A is 4.00% with a standard deviation of 9.00%, and the expected return for asset B is 6.75% with a standard deviation of 3.00%.

Consider the following two assets: Asset Expected return Standard deviation of returns 1 18% 30% 2 8% 10% The returns on the two assets are perfectly negatively correlated (i.e. coefficient of -1). Calculate the proportions of assets 1 and 2 that generate a portfolio with a standard deviation of zero. What is the expected return of that portfolio Calculate the expected returns and standard deviations of three other portfolios with weightingsof your choice. Present a graph of your results.
A person is interested in constructing a portfolio. Two stocks are being considered. Letx = percent return for an investment in stock 1, and y = percent return for an investment instock 2. The expected return and variance for stock 1 are e(x) = 8.45% and Var(x) = 25.The expected return and variance for stock 2 are e(y) = 3.20% and Var(y) = 1. Thecovariance between the returns is sxy = −3.a. what is the standard deviation for an investment in stock 1 and for an investment instock 2? Using the standard deviation as a measure of risk, which of these stocks isthe riskier investment?
