Gregory is an analyst at a wealth management firm. One of his clients holds a $$5,000$ 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:

Gregory calculated the portfolio's beta as $0\mathrm{.}9250$ and the portfolio's expected return as $9\mathrm{.}09\%.$

Gregory thinks it will be a good idea to reallocate the funds in his client's portfolio. He recommends replacing Atteric Inc.$\text{'}$s shares with the same

amount in additional shares of Baque Co$.$ The risk$-$free rate is $4\%,$ and the market risk premium is $5\mathrm{.}50\%.$

According to Gregory's recommendation, assuming that the market is in equilibrium, how much will the portfolio's required return change? $($Note:

Round your intermediate calculations to two decimal places.$)$

$0\mathrm{.}89$ percentage points

$0\mathrm{.}95$ percentage points

$0\mathrm{.}60$ percentage points

$0\mathrm{.}77$ percentage points

Analysts' estimates on expected returns from equity investments are based on several factors. 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, Gregory expects a return of $9\mathrm{.}82\%$ from the portfolio with the new weights. Does he

think that the revised portfolio, based on the changes he recommended, is undervalued, overvalued, or fairly valued?

Fairly valued

Undervalued

Overvalued

Suppose instead of replacing Atteric Inc.$\text{'}$s stock with Baque Co$.\text{'}$s stock, Gregory considers replacing Atteric Inc.$\text{'}$s stock with the equal dollar allocation

to shares of Company X$\text{'}$s stock that has a higher beta than Atteric Inc. If everything else remains constant, the portfolio's beta would

and the required return from the portfolio would
