INV 1 6e
You have decided to invest in three mutual funds: one in equities, one in long corporate and government bonds, and a money market fund invested in T-bills yielding 5%. Your estimate of the relevant parameters for the equities and bond funds are as follows:
Expected Return
Standard Deviation
Equities
.15
.30
Bonds
.06
.09
The correlation between the fund returns is 0.12.
Finally, adding the money market fund to your risky portfolio, determine the weights of a portfolio yielding 10% overall, and calculate its standard deviation.
