HELLO, NO HANDWRITING PLEASE. PLEASE SHOW ALL WORK, CALCULATIONS, STEPS AND FORMULAS PLEASE.

I WILL GIVE THUMBS UP RATING!

1. A portfolio manager has maintained an actively managed portfolio with a beta of 0.2. During the last year, the risk-free rate was 5% and major equity indices performed very badly, providing returns of about -30%. The portfolio manager produced a return of -10% and claims that in the circumstances it was good.

Discuss this claim.

Please show all work, concepts, typed and not handwritten, thank you.
