Total Returns

The standard deviation of the stocks is comparatively average . The standard deviation of an

standard deviation of Attock Refinery is the highest which indicates that its a risky investment.
Similarly, the risk of Indus motors co. is the lowest.

Investment portfolio management

The correlation of two stock or assets shows the co-movement of stock with one another and is
the bounded by the range +1 and -1. The correlation of Attock refinery with Indus motors shows
a positive correlation which means that if Attock increases in value, then Indus will also increase
in value. Similarly, if Attock decreases in value, then Indus will also decrease in value.
Therefore, all the 2 stocks are positively correlated with one another.
The beta of the stock shows the sensitivity of the stock with the market. A beta of 0.93 of Indus
shows that it is less sensitive to the market changes (KSE). A beta of 0.16 Attock shows that the
stock is also less sensitive to the market changes hence both the stocks are less than 1 beta.
Therefore Attock refinery relatively has high risk and high return.

Investment options
We were provided with 1 million from which we had to decided how much to invest in stocks
and T-bill. We decided to invest 18% of the investment to invest in Attock refinery limited
because it has higher standard deviation which results in high risk. However the return is
relatively high. The remaining investment from which 42% was invested in Indus motor co
because it is less risky having low standard deviation whereas its return is average compared to
Attock. 40% of the investment which was left over we decided to invest in risk-free which show
that the investment is secured.

Risk taker or Risk Averse?

A risk-averse investor dislikes risk, and therefore will stay away from adding high-risk stocks or
investments to their portfolio and in turn will often lose out on higher rates of return. Investors
looking for "safer" investments will generally stick to index funds and government bonds, which
generally have lower returns. Riskaverse because we have invested in less risky stocks. We have
invested 18% in Attock because it has high risk due to high standard deviation. InIndus, we have
invested 42% because it is less risky as the standard deviation is low. We have invested 40% in
T-Bills as it is secured.
