The standard deviation of Asset A returns is 36%, while the standard deviation of Asset M returns in 24%. The correlation between Asset A and Asset M returns is 0.4. (a) The average of Asset A and Asset M’s standard deviations is (36+24)/2 = 30%. Consider a portfolio, P, with 50% of funds in Asset A and 50% of funds in Asset M. Will the standard deviation of portfolio P’s returns be greater than, equal to, or less than 30%?...

1. using daily historical returns for the S&P 500 and the Toronto Stock Exchange Composite (TSX) you notice that the majority of the times when the S&P 500 has positive returns so does the TSX composite. Based on this qualitative assessment, one could expect that: a) the covariance between the return in the S&P 500 and TSX is greater than 0 b)the covariance between the return in the S&P 500 and TSX is equal to 0 c) the correlation between...

Stocks A and B each have an expected return of 15%, a standard deviation of 20%, and a beta of 1.2. The returns on the two stocks have a correlation coefficient of -1.0. You have a portfolio that consists of 50% A and 50% B. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? The portfolio's standard deviation is zero (i.e., a riskless portfolio).

Consider the following two assets. Returns on asset 1 has a mean of ui and standard deviation of 01. Returns on asset 2 has a mean of j2 and standard deviation of 02. The correlation coefficient p1,2 measures how the two assets' returns are correlated, and it takes on values between -1 and +1. An investor puts W1 fraction of her wealth into stock 1, and W2 =1-W1 fraction of her wealth into stock 2. 1. Using the equation on...
