a. the expected rate of return for the portfolio = 11%
the standard deviation for the portfolio = 13.39%
b. As per modern portfolio theory. There is a Benefit of
diversification of risk when non-perfectly correlated stocks are
added in the portfolio.
The benefit of diversification is when non perfectly correlated
stocks are added then if the stock return of stock falls then it's
offset by a rise in the stock return of another stock.
