9 Hint for the portoflio standard deviation, start by creating a table like the one in Section 0 25.1 for the N-asset case. In fact, begin by creating a table with the products of the 1 weights and standard deviations for each pair of stocks. If you are careful about how you construct the formulas, you can copy them. Then take the results from this intermediate. table and multiply them by the correlations above. 4 5 6 7 -8 9 0 1 2 A 400 11 19 -0 1 W₁ 30% 50% 20% 3 4 Now multiply the products of w, x, xw, x 5, by the correlations given above to 6 create a table like the one in Section 3.1. 7 0₂ 33% 54% 89% Portfolio variance W, = 0, W, xs, W, XS, A B с A 30% 33.11% B 50% 63.85% b. The partial model lists 66 different combinations of portfolio weights. For each 3 combination of weights, find the required return and standard deviation C 20% 89.44% 4 35 Hint: Use the formula to calculate the variance for each portfolio and then copy it down. 56 This formula should have six values in it: 1 for Stock A, 1 for Stock B, 1 for Stock C, one 57 for the cross-term of A and B, 1 for the cross-term of A and C, and 1 for the cross term of 58 B and C. The results for portfolio #36 should match your results in part a 30 Hint: put the products of weights and standard deviations for each stock in this row Hint: the values in this box should equal w, xs, x *** Hint: portfolio variance is the sum of all the values in the table immediately above.
