9.
A portfolio has an excess return of 15.9 % and a standard deviation of 15.23 %. What is the Sharpe Ratio for this portfolio?
question 8
where w = weight of stock
σ = standard deiviation of individual stock
(19.67)2=(0.5179)2*(12.9)2+(0.4821)2*(28.84)2+2*0.5179*0.4821*X*12.9*28.84
386.91=44.63+193.31+185.78*X
X= 148.97/185.78
CORRELATOIN =0.80186
question 9
sharpe ratio = excess return/ standard deviation
=15.9/15.23
=1.0440
