Question #2 (10 points) Consider the following two assets. Returns on asset 1 has a mean of , and standard deviation of o Returns on asset 2 has a mean of pa and standard deviation of os. The correlation coefficient P1.2 measures how the two assets' returns are correlated, and it takes on values between 1 and +1. An investor puts W, fraction of her wealth into stock 1, and W, = 1-W, fraction of her wealth into stock 2. 1. Using the equation on the standard deviation of portfolio returns, argue that the portfolio risk is in- creasing in Pia 2. When P1.2 = 1, argue using mathematical formulas that the portfolio standard deviation is equal to the weighted average of the standard deviation of the individual stocks in the portfolio. (Hint, Square of Summation) 3. Now suppose 12 = -1. If the investor wants to minimize her risk in investing in this portfolio, how should she choose W. and W, = 1-W? (Hint, Square of Difference)
