Part 1 What is the holding period return over the 10 weeks for the S&P 500? 3+ decimals Save Part 2 Attempt 1/1 What is the geometric average weekly return for the S&P 500? 4+ decimals Save Part 3 Attempt 1/1 What is the annualized return for the S&P 500 (EAR)? Hint: Annualize your results from part 1 and part 2 to verify your answer. Both methods must give you exactly the same result. 3+ decimals Save Attempt 1/1
Attempt 1/1 Attempt 1/1 Attempt 1/1 Part 4 What is standard deviation of weekly returns for the S&P 500? 4+ decimals Save Part 5 What is the beta of the stock (not the S&P 500)? 3+ decimals Save Part 6 Assume the risk-free rate (Treasury bill yield) was and is 2%. What was the (annualized) Sharpe ratio of the stock? Hint: Use the annualized return and standard deviation. The variance of returns over N weeks is N times the weekly variance. The standard deviation of returns over N weeks is Nº.5 times the weekly standard deviation. 2+ decimals Save
Part 7 Attempt 1/1 For the next few parts, assume a portfolio of 60% stock and 40% S&P 500. If you rebalanced such a portfolio every week to keep the weights at 0.6/0.4, what was the holding period return over the 10 weeks for the portfolio? 3+ decimals Save Part 8 Attempt 1/1 What is the standard deviation of weekly returns for such a portfolio if you rebalanced every week? 4+ decimals Save Part 9 What is the beta of such a portfolio if you rebalanced every week? 3+ decimals Save Attempt 1/1
Part 10 Attempt 1/1 What is the annual Sharpe ratio of a portfolio with 60% invested in the stock and 40% in the S&P 500? The T-bill yield is still 2%. Assume that the stock has an expected return of 14% and the S&P 500 of 5% (both EARS), and that the annualized variances and covariance stay the same as in the past. Hint: The covariance of returns over N weeks is N times the weekly covariance. Hint: Since we're looking at only one period (of one year), the distinction between rebalancing and not rebalancing is irrelevant here. 3+ decimals Save Part 11 Attempt 1/1 What is the annual Sharpe ratio of the optimal risky portfolio? 3+ decimals Save
