Return and Standard Deviation of the Global Minimum-Variance Portfolio
Question
Over the next year, expected return on the S&P 500 index (proxy for the optimal risky portfolio), the SMB portfolio, and the HML portfolio are 11%, 6%, and 3%; standard deviation of the returns on the S&P 500 is 27%; risk free return is 2%.
To obtain greater diversification for your investments you consider forming a portfolio from two stock index funds, one that tracks the S&P 500 (SPX) and the other is the Schwab International Index Fund (SWISX) that tracks large stocks in markets around the world. Over the next year, the S&P 500 has an expected return of 14% and a standard deviation of return of 30%. The SWISX has an expected return of 18% and a standard deviation of return of 27% (in U.S. $ terms). Assume that the indices have a historic correlation of 0.20 and that is expected to hold in the near future.
What are the expected return and standard deviation of the global minimum-variance portfolio that can be formed from the two indices?
Summary: This question belongs to financial management and discuses about expected return and standard deviation of the global minimum-variance portfolio

I was having a difficult time understanding the laws of conservation of mass and energy and use of tie components. With the brilliant tutors at TheReliableTutor I now have a much clearer understanding of the concepts. Their timely and professional tutoring with my chemical engineering assignments has helped me improve my grades and I am very satisfied with the way they provide their services
Walter Mehigan Student
I really needed assistance with my clinical epidemiology assignment while I came across HwA and was thrilled to find that they have expert dealing with that area of nursing. It was really cherishing and the nursing experts here are well experienced and well equipped with the nitty-gritty of a patient care.
Peggy Williams Student
I was really worried about my nursing ethics case study assignment which was related to the issue of nurses sharing their photos along with their patients’ in the internet. I was confused about what stand to take when I came across HwA. That was the first work they did for me. From there it only got better. I am now thinking of doing my MN and will definitely seek their help for that.
Danny Taylor Student
I used to always avoid metallurgy and concentrated in other sections of chemical engineering. However, a miracle happened 2 years ago. As I was stuck with my mechanical properties assignment, I came across HwA. Now, thanks to them, in my last semester I am thinking of doing my master degree in metallurgy. The material science experts of HwA did not only help me get good grades in the material science assignments but at the same time made me fall in love.
Lynn Macdonald Student
I was really struggling with the Networking engineering dissertation topic, my professor asked me to work on, in my last semester. Then I came across TheReliableTutor and they really have brilliant engineering dissertation and thesis writers. The experts have worked on my Engineering Questions since then and now I am in my 7th semester and still never got below grade A in any of my Electrical Engineering Assignments.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
