What is the volatility of a certain stock index from 2019 to 2022? The return for each year is given by: 4,30%, 10,75%, 2,05%, and 12,70%. Calculate the average return over the four-year period. Then, determine the volatility (standard deviation) of the stock index returns.
Suppose you think AppX stock is going to appreciate substantially in value in the next year. Say the stock's current price, Sø. is $75, and a call option expiring in one year has an exercise price, X, of $75 and is selling at a price, C, of $21. With $21,000 to invest, you are considering three alternatives. a. Invest all $21,000 in the stock, buying 280 shares. b. Invest all $21,000 in 1,000 options (10 contracts). c. Buy 100 options (one contract) for $2,100, and invest the remaining $18,900 in a money market fund paying 6% in interest over 6 months (12% per year). What is your rate of return for each alternative for the following four stock prices in 6 months? (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Round the "Percentage return of your portfolio (Bills + 100 options)" answers to 2 decimal places.)
