9. Portfolio beta and weights Rafael is an analyst at a wealth management firm. One of his clients holds a $10,000 portfolio that consists of four stocks. The investment allocation in the portfolio along with the contribution of risk from each stock is given in the following table: Stock Atteric Inc. (AI) Arthur Trust Inc. (AT) Li Corp. (LC) Transfer Fuels Co. (TF) Investment Allocation Beta 35% 0.900 20% 1.400 15% 1.100 30% 0.300 Standard Deviation 23.00% 27.00% 30.00% 34.00% Rafael calculated the portfolio's beta as 0.850 and the portfolio's expected return as 8.6750%. Rafael thinks it will be a good idea to reallocate the funds in his client's portfolio. He recommends replacing Atteric Inc.'s shares with the same amount in additional shares of Transfer Fuels Co.

These estimations also often include subjective and judgmental factors, because different analysts interpret data in different ways. Suppose, based on the earnings consensus of stock analysts, Rafael expects a return of 6.02% from the portfolio with the new weights. Does he think that the required return as compared to expected returns is undervalued, overvalued, or fairly valued? Undervalued Fairly valued Overvalued Suppose instead of replacing Atteric Inc.'s stock with Transfer Fuels Co.'s stock, Rafael considers replacing Atteric Inc.'s stock with the equal dollar allocation to shares of Company X's stock that has a higher beta than Atteric Inc. If everything else remains constant, the portfolio's beta would
