Question

A European growth mutual fund specializes in stocks from the British Isles, continental Europe, and Scandinavia. The fund has over 375 stocks. Let x be a random variable that represents the monthly percentage return for this fund. Suppose x has mean μ = 1.3% and standard deviation σ = 1.5%. (e) If after 18 months the average monthly percentage return x is more than 2%, would that tend to shake your confidence in the statement that μ = 1.3%? If this happened, do you think the European stock market might be heating up? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) P(x > 2%)

Step 1

We are given a mutual fund with a mean monthly return (μ) of 1.3% and a standard deviation (σ) of 1.5%. We need to determine the probability that the average monthly return over 18 months exceeds 2%. Show more…
