QUESTION 10
You have a portfolio of investment which consists of Stock A with a return of A% and Stock B with a return of B%. Given the following average returns and standard deviations for both Stock A and Stock B,
M(A) = 18%, M(B) = 51%
s(A) = 1%, s(B) = 14%
what is the absolute risk (standard deviation) of your portfolio assuming that the returns of Stock A and Stock B are uncorrelated?
Hint: Notice that the return of your portfolio will be A+B and the Variance Sum Laws apply to the variances not standard deviations. Answer should be in % accurate up to 2 decimal places.
