+/- 2 Standard deviation means 95% of return iwll fall within the 2 standard deviation |
|
Expected return of a portfolio
|
E(Rp) = W1 E(R1) + W2 E(R2).....
Asset 1 = 60% of portfolio, 10% expected return Asset 2 = 40% of portfolio, 5% expected return (60% X 10% ) + (40% X 5%) = expected retun of the portfolio |
