Bromelain is found in high levels in pineapples. As part of common commercial kitchen, pineapple extracts are used as a meat tenderizer prior to cooking. Additionally, eating too much very fresh pineapple can cause gum bleeding, swelling, and muscle pains.

Given what you know about bromelain and have learned throughout this semester, explain why fresh pineapple is a better meat tenderizer than canned pineapple.

Assume that the Sharpe-Lintner CAPM holds, so the mean-variance efficient frontier consists of combinations of Treasury bills and the market portfolio. Nonetheless, some households make the mistake of holding undiversified portfolios that contain only one stock or a few stocks. (a) Show that the Sharpe ratio of any portfolio divided by the Sharpe ratio of the market portfolio equals the correlation of that portfolio with the market portfolio. (b) Suppose the market is made up of identical stocks, each of which has the same market capitalization, the same mean and variance of return, and the same correlation ρ > 0, with every other individual stock. Consider the limit as the number of stocks in the market increases. What is the Sharpe ratio of an equally-weighted portfolio that contains N stocks divided by the Sharpe ratio of the market portfolio? Interpret.
