Question
Portfolio A returned 9.20% p.a. over the evaluation period compared to 5.00% p.a. for the S&P 500. This equates to a difference, or outperformance of 4.20% p.a. However, according to CAPM, the annualized alpha of portfolio A is 4.74% p.a. Explain the difference between the two numbers.

Asset A pays on average 10%, has a standard deviation equal to 40% and is NOT correlated with the S&P500. Asset B pays on average 16%, also has a standard deviation equal to 40% and has a correlation of 1 with the S&P500. Determine whether asset A and B are overvalued or undervalued, and explain why. (Beta of asset i (?i) = ?i ?iM / ?M, where ?i, ?M are standard deviations of asset i and market portfolio, ?iM is the correlation between asset i and the market portfolio)arrow_forwardman.1arrow_forward
