Consider a hypothetical value-weighted index created using the three stocks below:

Stock

Price on 1/28/21

Price on 7/28/21

Outstanding Shares (mil) on 1/18/21

Outstanding Shares (mil) on 7/28/21

$80 $101 5000 5000

B

100 84 2500 2500

C

None of the stocks pay dividends.

On 1/28/2021, as a young asset manager, you were asked by a client to create a portfolio to track the said three-stock value-weighted index. You did exactly as ask and created this tracking portfolio with an initial investment of $104,000.

On 7/18/2020, you review the portfolio weights of the three stocks. What is the portfolio weight of Stock B?

Enter your answer as a percentage and round to the nearest 1%. E.g., if your answer is "0.12", enter "12%".
