Assume the residual returns (the e terms in Equations (1) and (2) on each of these stocks are independent of each other. What is the residual standard deviation of the portfolio?
(1).....
rportfoilo = rf +β(rM - rf) + e +α
(2) ..... Hedged proceeds = $1, 236,000 + $1,200,000 × e
b. Recalculate the probability of a loss on a market-neutral strategy involving equally weighted, market-hedged positions in the 100 stocks over the next month.
