Assume that stock market returns have the market index as a common factor, and that all stocks in the economy have a beta of 2.0 on the market index. Firm-specific returns all have a standard deviation of 32%.

Suppose that an analyst studies 20 stocks and finds that one-half of them have an alpha of +3.0%, and the other half have an alpha of 3.0%. Suppose the analyst invests $1.0 million in an equally weighted portfolio of the positive alpha stocks, and shorts $1 million of an equally weighted portfolio of the negative alpha stocks.

a. What is the expected profit (in dollars) and standard deviation of the analysts profit? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

Expected profit (in dollars)
Standard deviation

b. How does your answer change if the analyst examines 50 stocks instead of 20 stocks? 100 stocks? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

	50 stocks	100 stocks
Standard deviation
