Task 10 Observations & Conclusions

.a
The r's computed in Task 3b and Task 8 is different because in Task 3b the returns
calculated are individual returns and in Task 8 the returns are calculated for the entire
portfolio. The portfolio contains 4 stocks and thus the risk is reduced because of
several factors
.b
In Task 6 the returns that we have calculated are based on the average rate of return for
individual stocks and in Task 9 we have used the Beta Factor which shows the
relationship between the market returns and the individual stock returns. Since the 18
stock portfoilo forms a portolio which is diversified and thus is closer to the market
.portfolio and thus the returns in Task 6 and 9 are closer
.c
The return of any investment has an average, which is also the expected return, but
most returns will be different from the average: some will be more, others will be less.
The more individual returns deviate from the expected return, the greater the risk and
. the greater the potential reward
.The greater the standard deviation, the greater the risk of an investment
The coefficient of variation is a better measure of risk, quantifying the dispersion of an
assets returns in relation to the expected return, and, thus, the relative risk of the
investment. Hence, the coefficient of variation allows the comparison of different
.investments
