Question:
Portfolio with return X. Need to add shares of two stocks with returns per share Y and Z to minimize risk. Buying s shares of Y and t shares of Z yields return, X + sY + tZ
Var(Y) = 10
Var (Z) =3
Cov (X,Y) = -60
Cov (X,Z) = 0
Cov (Y,Z) = -1
a) What is optimal s and t to minimize variance of return?
b) Cost per share of Y is 30, and Z is 10. I have $100 to invest. Find s and t that minimize the variance subject to a given constraint.
