问题如下:
The return projections have been made by Eunice. an analyst from an investment company, for each of the assets with the same probability of occurrence, which combination of two equally-weighted assets has lowest diversification effect?
选项:
A.Asset A and Asset C.
B.Asset B and Asset C.
C.Asset A and Asset B.
解释:
C is correct.
We can also use the calculator to measure the correlation. The correlation between asset B and asset C is -1, between A and B is 0.5, and between A and C is -0.5, the higher correlation, the worse diversification.
这类题目的解题思路是选correlation 最大的(有的题目选最小的)
但是如果根据公式来推倒,只知道权重,每一个的方差是不确定的,如何能保证correlation 最大/最小就是最不分散/分散呢?
