MARKOWITZ MODEL

MARKOWITZ MODEL Portfolio Selection: If number of portfolio we use this method to select the portfolio. for example groups of protfolios sample A:  NBP, Nestle B:  NBP, Nestle, MCB C:  Lucky, Nestle Feasible Set of Portfolio: The number of portfolio which are available for their selection Efficent Portfolio: (Max. return, less risky) The portfolio which is selected from the feasible set of protfolio. Decision Rules 1: If the different portfolio have same return then we select that portfolio who's risk is minimum. Decision Rules 2: If the different protfolio have same risk then we should select that portfolio who's return is maximum. Draw Back: This model just focus only those portfolio who's return are same or risk are same. It ignore the other portfolio. Example: No. of Portfolio          Return          Risk A                       ...

RETURN PORTFOLIO ANALYSIS

RISK AND RETURN  PORTFOLIO ANALYSIS To check how much return and risk will be faced by investor on portfolio investment is called risk and return protfolio analysis In this question we show only how to calculate return. Suppose after analysis we get these results     Pepsi E(R) = 12%    S.D= 9%        amount=50000 Nestle E(R) = 20%  S.D= 12%       amount=30000 Lucky Cement = E(R) = 10%  S.D= 5%     amount=20000 what will be tatal risk and return? Portfolio Return: R p = ∑W x  E (R)  Rp = Return on portfolio E(R) = Expected return ∑W = weights what formula will be for three securite return calculation Rp = Wa x  E (R)a + Wb x  E (R)b +Wc x  E (R)c Weight: The portion of your investment amount invest in a single security is called weight. Weight of single security = single security amount / total all securities amount Tatal amount = 50000 + 300...

Example: shortage of employees, Clash between the management etc. CAP MODEL: A model which shows the relationship between the systematic return and not shows un-systematic. _ R = R f + ( R m - R f) x    β (beta) _ R = Return (expected) R f = Risk free Return The minimum return which is desire by the investor R m = Market Return The return which is provided by the market β = systematic Risk Note = when minimum then always keep the Rf value less and Rm val...
