Suppose the correlation coefficient between the rates of return on ABC Mutual Fund and the market portfolio is 0.6. The standard deviations of the rates return are 0.30 for ABC and 0.20 for the market portfolio. How would you combine the fund and the riskless asset to obtain a portfolio with a relative systematic risk (beta) of 0.7? What is your weight on the fund?

Suppose that securities are priced according to the CAPM. You have forecast the correlation coefficient between the rate of return on the High Value Mutual Fund (HVMF) and the market portfolio (M) at 0.8. Your forecasts of the standard deviations of the rate of return are 0.25 for HVFF and 0.20 for M. How would you combine the HVMF and a risk free security to obtain a portfolio with a beta of 1.6? Suppose that rf = 0.10 and E[rm...

A mutual fund manager expects her portfolio to earn a rate of return of 9% this year. The beta of her portfolio is 0.8. If the rate of return available on risk free assets is 4% and you expect the rate of return on the market portfolio to be 11%. Should you invest in this mutual fund? Show your work. Suppose you want to create a portfolio with the same risk as the fund manager’s portfolio above, however you only...
