What is the expected return on a two asset portfolio and what are its variance and standard deviation? Also, What is R squared?
Consider two assets. Suppose that the return on asset 1 has expected value 0.05 and standard deviation 0.1 and suppose that the return on asset 2 has expected value 0.02 and standard deviation 0.05. Suppose that the asset returns have correlation 0.4.Consider a portfolio placing weight w on asset 1 and weight 1-w on asset 2; let Rp denote the return on the portfolio.
Find the mean and variance of Rp as a function of w.
Compute the residual risk measure for portfolio B. Round off your final answer to three digits after the decimal point.
