This document discusses the concepts of risk and return as they relate to investment portfolio diversification. It provides an example to illustrate how combining investments with imperfect correlations can reduce overall portfolio risk compared to holding individual assets. Specifically:
- It analyzes potential returns and risks of investing in bus and taxi companies under different economic scenarios.
- It then shows how a 50% allocation to each lowers total risk compared to the individual investments, from 10.68% portfolio standard deviation versus 26.42% and 34.13% for each individually.
- This demonstrates how diversification across imperfectly correlated assets reduces risk for the same expected return compared to holding single assets.
This is an extended version of a previous talk. Some further progress has been made in the sense that there is computation of 6-d transport coefficients. Hopefully this allows us to generalize to higher dimensions.

What are investment returns?
Investment returns measure the financial results of an investment.
Returns may be historical or prospective (anticipated).
Returns can be expressed in:
Dollar terms.
Percentage terms.
5
An investment costs $1,000 and is sold after 1 year for $1,100.
Dollar return:
Percentage return:
$ Received - $ Invested
$1,100 - $1,000 = $100.
$ Return/$ Invested
$100/$1,000 = 0.10 = 10%.

What is investment risk?
Typically, investment returns are not known with certainty.
Investment risk pertains to the probability of earning a return less than that expected.
The greater the chance of a return far below the expected return, the greater the risk.

Alta Inds. moves with the economy, so it is positively correlated with the economy. This is the typical situation.
Repo Men moves counter to the economy. Such negative correlation is unusual.

2. Relationship Between Risk and Return – Let’s
revisit…
Exhibit I
Possible Investment Outcomes
Taxi & Bus Companies
State of the Economy
Poor Average Good
Bus Company 1,300,000 1,210,000 700,000
Taxi Company 600,000 1,210,000 1,400,000
Harry Markowitz -- one of the founders of modern finance – contributed greatly
to modern financial theory and practice. In his dissertation he argued that investors
are 1) risk adverse, and 2) evaluate investment opportunities by comparing
expected returns relative to risk which he defined as the standard deviation of the
expected returns. This example is based on his seminal work.
3. Step 1: Calculate the potential return on each
investment...
Rit = (Priceit+1 - Priceit)/Priceit
Where:
Rit = The holding period return for investment “i” for time
period “t”
Priceit = The price of investment “i” at time period “t”
Priceit+1 = The price of investment “i’ at time period “t+1”
State of the Economy
Poor Average Good
Bus Company 30.00% 21.00% -30.00%
Taxi Company -40.00% 21.00% 40.00%
4. Step 2: Calculate the expected return
(E)Rit = ΣXi Rit
Where: Xi = Probability of a given event
The Expected Return for the Taxi and Bus Companies -
(E)RBus = 1/3(-30%) + 1/3(21%) + 1/3(30%)
= 7%
(E)RTaxi = 7%
6. Step 5: Compare the alternatives
Expected Return
10%
7% --------------B------T
2%
10% 20% 30% 40% Risk (Standard
Deviation)
We have two investment alternatives with the same
expected return – which one is preferable?
Bus
Company
Taxi
Company
Expected Return 7% 7%
Standard Deviation 26.42% 34.13%
7. Conclusion
Based on our analysis the Bus Company
represents a superior investment alternative to
the Taxi company. Since the Bus company
represents a superior return to the Taxi
company, why would anyone hold the Taxi
company?
8. Portfolio Analysis of Investment Decision
Assume you invest 50 percent of your money in the Bus company
and 50 percent in the Taxi company.
Exhibit IV
Portfolio Analysis of Investment Decision
State of the Economy
Poor Average Good
Bus Company 30.00% 21.00% -30.00%
Taxi Company -40.00% 21.00% 40.00%
50 percent in each -5.00% 21.00% 5.00%
9. Portfolio Return...
(E)Rp = Σwj(E)rit
Where: (E)Rp = The expected return on the portfolio
wj = The proportion of the portfolio’s total value
= .5(7%) + .5(7%)
= 7%
or,
(E)Rp = -5%(1/3) + 21%(1/3) + 5%(1/3)
= 7%
10. Portfolio Risk
The standard deviation of the portfolio:
σp = 10.68%
Note - The expected return of the portfolio is simply a weighted-
average of the of the expected returns for each alternative; the
standard deviation of the portfolio is not a simple weighted-
average. Why?
The formula for the portfolio standard deviation is:
σp = (wa2* σa2 + wb2* σb2 + 2*wa*wb* σa* σb*rab).5
Where:
Wa – weight of security A
Wb – weight of security B
σa = standard deviation of security A’s return
σb = standard deviation of security B’s return
Corrab = correlation coefficient between security A and B
11. Risk Reduction
Holding more than one asset in a portfolio (with less than a
correlation coefficient of positive 1) reduces the range or spread
of possible outcomes; the smaller the range, the lower the total
risk.
State of the Economy
Poor Average Good
Bus Company 30.00% 21.00% -30.00%
Taxi Company -40.00% 21.00% 40.00%
50 percent in each -5.00% 21.00% 5.00%
Correlation coefficient = CovarianceAB /σAσB
Covariance = ΣpAB(A – E(A))*(B – E(B))
= 1/3(30% - 7%)(-40% - 7%) + 1/3(21% - 7%)(21% - 7%) + 1/3 (-30% - 7%)(40% - 7%)
= -.0702
Correlation coefficient = -.0702/((.2642)*(.3413)) = -.78
12. Standard Deviation of a Two-Asset
Portfolio
σp = (wa2* σa2 + wb2* σb2 + 2*wa*wb* σa* σb*rab).5
Where:
Wa – weight of security A (.5)
Wb – weight of security B (.5)
σa = standard deviation of security A’s return (26.42%)
σb = standard deviation of security B’s return (34.13%)
rab = correlation coefficient between security A and B (-.78)
σp = ((.5)2 (26.42)2 + (.5)2 (34.13)2 + 2(.5)(.5)(26.42)(34.13)(-.78)).5
σp = (174.50 +291.21 - 351.67).5
σp = 10.68%
13. Risk Reduction

The net effect is that an investor can reduce their overall risk by
holding assets with less than a perfect positive correlation in a
portfolio relative to the expected return of the portfolio.

20. Why Diversification Works, I.
Correlation: The tendency of the returns on two assets to move
together. Imperfect correlation is the key reason why
diversification reduces portfolio risk as measured by the portfolio
standard deviation.
Positively correlated assets tend to move up and down
together.
Negatively correlated assets tend to move in opposite
directions.
Imperfect correlation, positive or negative, is why diversification
reduces portfolio risk.
21. Why Diversification Works, II.
The correlation coefficient is denoted by Corr(RA, RB) or
simply, rA,B.
The correlation coefficient measures correlation and ranges
from:
From: -1 (perfect negative
correlation)
Through: 0 (uncorrelated)
To: +1 (perfect positive
correlation)
31. Individual securities
We have learned that investors should diversify.
Individual securities will be held in a portfolio.
We call the risk that cannot be diversified away, i.e., the risk that
remains when the stock is put into a portfolio – the systematic
risk
Major question -- How do we measure a stock’s systematic risk?
Consequently, the relevant risk of an individual
security is the risk that remains when the security
is placed in a portfolio.
6-31
32. Systematic risk
Systematic risk arises from events that effect the
entire economy such as a change in interest
rates or GDP or a financial crisis such as
occurred in 2007and 2008.
If a well diversified portfolio has no unsystematic
risk then any risk that remains must be
systematic.
That is, the variation in returns of a well
diversified portfolio must be due to changes in
systematic factors.
6-32

market’s excess return is zero, i.e., (rm - rf) = 0

36. Components of Risk

market index
risk not related to the macro factor or market index

2 = systematic variance
2(ei) = unsystematic variance
6-38
The total risk of security i, is
the risk associated with the
market + the risk associated
with any firm specific
shocks.
(its this simple because the
market variance and the
variance of the residuals are
uncorrelated.)
39. Total Risk = Systematic Risk +
Unsystematic Risk

2 + 2(ei)) = r2
6-39
The ratio of the systematic risk to total risk is actually the
square of the correlation coefficient between the asset
and the market.
40. Sharpe Ratios and alphas
When ranking portfolios and security performance
we must consider both return & risk
“Well performing” diversified portfolios provide high
Sharpe ratios:
Sharpe = (rp – rf) / p
The Sharpe ratio can also be used to evaluate an
individual stock if the investor does not diversify
6-40
