On October 1, 2017, you invested $1000 into a portfolio with initial weight of 40% - Microsoft a. What is the value of your portfolio on September 30, 2018? b. What is the annualized monthly volatility of your portfolio? c. What are the portfolio weights on September 30, 2018? d. Assume that the return on your portfolio is normally distributed with mean y = 0.19% and standard deviation 0, = 2.17%. What is the value-at-risk with probability p= 5%? Exercise 4 a. Draw a histogram of daily S&P500 returns with 20 equal-sized bins. b. Calculate the average and the standard deviation of daily return on S&P500. c. Assume that daily S&P500 returns are normally distributed with the mean and the standard deviation calculated in 4b). You observe a return on S&P500 of (-1.51%). Is it extreme? How often can we expect to observe returns of (-1.51% or lower? d. Assume again that daily S&P500 returns are normally distributed with the mean and the standard deviation calculated in 4b). Can we be certain that the average daily return on S&P500 is different from (-0.02%) ?

On October 1, 2017, you invested $1000 into a portfolio with initial weight of 40% - Microsoft a. What is the value of your portfolio on September 30, 2018? b. What is the annualized monthly volatility of your portfolio? c. What are the portfolio weights on September 30, 2018? d. Assume that the return on your portfolio is normally distributed with mean y = 0.19% and standard deviation 0, = 2.17%. What is the value-at-risk with probability p= 5%? Exercise 4 a. Draw a histogram of daily S&P500 returns with 20 equal-sized bins. b. Calculate the average and the standard deviation of daily return on S&P500. c. Assume that daily S&P500 returns are normally distributed with the mean and the standard deviation calculated in 4b). You observe a return on S&P500 of (-1.51%). Is it extreme? How often can we expect to observe returns of (-1.51% or lower? d. Assume again that daily S&P500 returns are normally distributed with the mean and the standard deviation calculated in 4b). Can we be certain that the average daily return on S&P500 is different from (-0.02%)
