you are considering investing in two securities. Security 1 has a expected return of 12% and a standard deviation of return of 10%. Security 2 has an expected return of 9%and a standard deviation of returns of 8%. The correlation coefficient of returns for the two securities is 0.3. What would the weights be for each of the two securities in the minimum variance portfolio? W1= W2= Given the weights computed in (a), compute the expected return and standard deviation...
