Trang 81 Investment Definition
An investment is the commitment of current resources in
the expectation of deriving greater resources in the future
Investment example:
Buying a stock/bond
Putting money in a bank account
Study for a college degree
8
Trang 91 Investment Definition
The nature of financial investment:
Reduced current consumption
Planned later consumption
An investment will compensate the investor for:
The time the funds are committed
The risk of the investment
Inflation

Trang 102 Real Assets versus Financial Assets
Claims to the income generated by real assets: stocks, bonds…
Define the allocation of income or wealth among investors
10
Trang 11 Debt securities: Money market instruments, Bonds
Equity security: common stock, preferred stock
Derivatives: Options, Futures, Forward, Warrants
Alternative investments: Real estate, artwork, hedge funds,
venture capital, crypto currencies, etc
3 Major Classes of Financial Assets
11
Trang 124 Investment Process
Portfolio: an investor’s collection of investment assets
Two types of decisions in constructing the portfolio:
Asset allocation: Allocation of an investment portfolio across
broad asset classes
Security selection: Choice of specific securities within each asset
class
Security analysis: Analysis of the value of securities

Trang 135 Measuring Return and Risk
5.1 Measuring return
Holding-period Return (HPR)
Arithmetic Mean (AM) vs Geometric Mean (GM)
Risk and Expected return
5.2 Measuring risk
Measuring risk using variance and standard deviation
5.3 Measuring risk and return of a portfolio
The return of a portfolio
Correlation and portfolio risk
13
Trang 145.1 Measuring Return
Return:
Profit/loss on an investment
Can be expressed in $$$ or in percentage (%)
Rate of return = return expressed in %
From now on, “rate of return” will be simply called “return”
(Unless specified otherwise)
14
Trang 185.1 Measuring Return
Holding period: day, week, month, year, etc
How to compare HPRs with different holding periods?
How to measure the average return over multiple periods?

Trang 205.1 Arithmetic Mean vs Geometric Mean
Example 5.3: Mutual fund DUE has the following returns in the last 4 years as follow: 35%, -25%, 20%, -10%
What is the mutual fund’s AM?
Trang 215.1 Arithmetic Mean vs Geometric Mean
If an investor invests in the DUE fund, what return should
he expect to earn next year?
Which number is better at representing the actual
return/performance of the DUE fund for the last 4 years? Arithmetic Mean or Geometric Mean?
21
Trang 225.1 Arithmetic vs Geometric Mean
Example 5.4
AM = [1+(–0.50)] /2 = 0.5/2 = 0.25 = 25%
GM = (2 × 0.5)1/2 – 1 = (= (1)1/2– 1 = 1 – 1 = 0%

𝑝𝑖: The probability of scenario i

Standard deviation is the square root of the variance
Measure the volatility of an investment
The higher the 𝜎, the riskier (more volatile) the investment
Risk-free asset (F): 𝜎𝐹= 0

Trang 31Using historical rate of return
Calculate return and risk over time:
𝐸 𝑅𝐴 = 1
𝑛 𝑛𝑖=1 𝑅𝑖,
𝜎𝐴 = 1
𝑛−1 𝑛𝑖=1 𝑅𝑖 − 𝐸 𝑅𝐴 2,
where n is the number of observations,
𝑅𝑖 is return during the period i
Trang 325.3 Return and Risk of a Portfolio
Example 5.7: Portfolio P is made up of 3 securities (A, B, and C)
with the following weights Calculate the return on P when the economy is booming?
32
Trang 33 Return on a portfolio:
RP = wiRi

i=1 where wi is the weight of the asset i in the portfolio,
Ri is the return on asset i

The variance and standard deviation of portfolio P
Scenario Probability Return R - E(R) [R - E(R)]^2
Trang 375.3.2 Risk of a Portfolio
Is the risk of a portfolio the average/the sum of the risk of
individual assets in the portfolio?
We’ll need to know the covariance/correlation between
assets’ returns in the portfolio to calculate the portfolio
variance and standard deviation
cov RA, RB = σA,B = ni=1 pi R𝐴,i − E RA [RB,i−E RB ]
A measure of the degree to which two variables “move
together” relative to their individual mean values over time

Trang 39Security Weight Boom Normal Recession E(R) σ
Trang 40 The negative covariance between B and A, C helps lower
the volatility of the portfolio
Trang 41 Coefficient of Correlation:
The correlation coefficient is obtained by standardizing
(dividing) the covariance by the product of the individual standard deviations
𝜌𝑖𝑗 = 𝐶𝑜𝑣𝑖𝑗
𝜎𝑖𝜎𝑗
𝜌𝑖𝑗 measures how strong the returns of i and j move
together or in opposite direction
5.3.2 Risk of a Portfolio
41
Trang 42 Covij tells us whether the returns of asset i and j tend to
move in the same direction or in opposite direction
But Covij doesn’t tell whether they move together strongly
Trang 43 𝜌𝑖𝑗 = 1: perfect positive correlation This means that
returns for the two assets move together in a completely
linear manner
𝜌𝑖𝑗 = −1 : perfect negative correlation This means that the
returns for two assets have the same percentage
movement, but in opposite directions
𝜌𝑖𝑗 = 0: the movements of the rates of return of the two
assets are not correlated
5.3.2 Risk of a Portfolio
43
Trang 44 Standard deviation of a portfolio
Trang 45 Standard deviation of a portfolio
Trang 46Example 5.11
Calculate the expected return on the portfolio (P)
Calculate the SD of the portfolio (P) if the correlation
between the two assets is: +1, 0.5, 0, -0.5, -1

Trang 495.3.2 Risk of a Portfolio
Negative correlation reduces portfolio risk
Combining two assets with -1.0 correlation reduces the
portfolio standard deviation to zero only when individual standard deviations are equal

Trang 505 Return and Risk: Further questions
Where does risk come from?
What is risk premium?
The relationship between risk and return?
What type of risk should investors be compensated?

Trang 516 Utility, Risk aversion, and Portfolio selection
Utility function: Measures the satisfaction that we can derive
from the investment outcomes (wealth)
Assume that each investor can assign a Utility value to each
of the portfolio he/she can choose
Higher utility portfolio is better
Given an investor’s preferences (tastes), the best portfolio
is the portfolio that gives the highest utility he can choose
from
51
Trang 526 Utility, Risk aversion, and Portfolio selection
Investors’ preferences:
Like Expected Return
Risk Averse = Dislike Risk
Investor’s utility function:
Increasing in Expected Return
Decreasing in Risk
Risk is measured by standard deviation or variance
52
Trang 536 Utility, Risk aversion, and Portfolio selection
Investor’s Utility function:
U = E RP − 0.005AσP2
𝐸(𝑅𝑃): Expected return of portfolio P
𝜎𝑃: standard deviation of portfolio P
A: The degree of risk aversion of the investor Therefore, different
investors have different A, or different levels of risk aversion
Higher A means the investor is more risk-averse (dislike
risk more strongly)

54
Trang 556 Utility, Risk aversion, and Portfolio selection
Dominance Principle:
Given a level of expected return:
Investors prefer portfolios with Lower Risk (lower standard
deviation)
Give a level of standard deviation:
Investors prefer portfolios with Higher Expected Return
Each portfolio is dominated by all the portfolios lies in the
“Northwest” of itself
55
Trang 566 Utility, Risk aversion, and Portfolio selection
2 dominates 1; has a higher return
2 dominates 3; has a lower risk
4 dominates 3; has a higher return
All Red portfolios dominates 3

the investor should choose the portfolio that provides
the investor with the highest utility

Example: Portfolio (C) consists of a risk-free asset (F)
and a risky asset (P)

Risky & Risk Free Assets (cont.)
• If y = 1 then C = 1 x 0.22 = 0.22 = 22%, E(RC) = 15% = E(RP)
• If y = 0 then C = 0 x 0.22 = 0, E(RC) = 7% = E(RF)

Risky & Risk Free Assets (cont.)
• The risk premium of portfolio P per unit of risk (σ)
• Higher Sharpe ratio = Higher return per unit of risk

Risky & Risk Free Assets (cont.)
Capital Allocation Line (CAL):
CAL : 𝐸 𝑅𝐶 = 𝑅𝑓 + 𝜎𝐶 𝐸 𝑅𝑃 − 𝑅𝑓
𝜎𝑃
The slope of CAL = The Sharpe Ratio of portfolio P (or 𝑆 )
All portfolios on the CAL has the same reward-to-risk, the
difference is their total risk and return

Greater levels of risk aversion lead to larger proportions of the risk
free rate
Lower levels of risk aversion lead to larger proportions of the
portfolio of risky assets
Willingness to accept high levels of risk for high levels of returns
would result in leveraged combinations

For portfolios with 2 assets:

Only 1 portfolio can be formed given a value of 𝐸 𝑅𝑃
When there are more than 2 assets:

Many portfolios can be formed given a value of 𝐸 𝑅𝑃
