4. Efficient Risky Portfolios--The Efficient Frontier With Two Assets • Though high volatility assets historically have high return, variance of return a poor measure of risk for asset pricing • Investors can easily diversify away firm-specific risk • Investors will only be willing to “pay for” systematic risk • Asset pricing models aim to define & quantify systematic risk • Asset pricing models assume investors hold assets in p/f • Begin developing pricing model by asking: “Are some p/fs better than others?” • Clearly, yes: p/f of Microsoft & Berkshire beats either alone • Figure next slide makes p/f with two generic stocks, A & B • Visually, A&B seem imperfectly correlated: -1< AB <+1 • Curve connecting A&B called the feasible set of p/fs • Only p/fs from minimum variance p/f (MVP) to B are efficient

6. The Efficient Frontier With Many Assets • Since investors have many assets to choose from, must also show that efficient frontier exists for many assets • Next figure: how individual stocks plot in risk-return space • Each dot represents individual security; Feasible set consists of all possible p/fs • Only p/fs on upward sloping edge from MVP are efficient • A,B,C are inefficient: p/fs on frontier offer higher return for same risk or same return for lower risk • Figure “The Effect Of Expanding The Feasible Set On The Efficient Frontier” shows how expanding universe of investment assets expands efficient frontier • Include non-equity assets: bonds, real estate, art, gold • Include international assets as well as U.S. • Basic point: Investors always stay on efficient frontier • Appetite for risk determines exactly where

9. Illustrating The Efficient Frontier Using P/Fs Of Berkshire, Microsoft, 3M & Praxair Stocks • Why do assets that are not themselves on the efficient frontier (Point A in Figure “The Efficient Frontier With Many Assets”) survive in the capital market? • Answer: their value in a p/f with other assets • If negatively correlated, stock A may reduce p/f variance • Demonstrate p/f construction using four stocks from chapter 5: Berkshire Hathaway, Microsoft, 3M & Praxair • Table next slide shows 16 p/fs; four with 100% in each stock • Portfolios 5, 7, 10, 12, 16, plot the efficient frontier • All but #16 (100% Praxair) are p/fs of at least two stocks • Microsoft (#1) plots very low by itself, but is part of five of the six efficient p/fs. • Reason: negatively correlated with other three stocks.

12. Riskless Borrowing And Lending • Cannot yet say which p/f a particular investor would choose • Risk aversion determines specific p/f on efficient frontier • Adding riskless asset changes everything and makes one p/f alone efficient risky asset. • Assume mutual fund MF on efficient frontier in next figure • And that investors can borrow and lend at risk-free rate Rf • All investors will hold combination of riskless asset and MF • Between Rf and MF, allocating existing wealth (point A) • Above MF, borrowing at Rf, investing proceeds in MF (pt B) • Ray from Rf through MF called Capital Market Line (CML) • P/Fs on CML dominate all previous efficient p/fs • Figure “Portfolios Of Risky & Risk-Free Assets” shows that CML becomes new efficient frontier • Every investor chooses combination of portfolio M and riskless asset: called two-fund separation principle

13. Portfolios Of Risky & Risk-Free Assets E(RP) new efficient frontier borrowing • 16.5% B • 12% M old efficient frontier lending • 9% L1 A X • • RF=6% P 0 30%

15. Finding the Optimal Portfolio Assume investor plots seven p/fs in risk-return space, as shown below: 27 24 (30%, 23%) 21 (24%, 21%) 18 (19%, 16%) 15 Portfolio Expected Return,% 12 (15%, 12%) 9 (12%, 9%) 6 (14%, 6%) (17%, 3%) 3 0 0 3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 30 33 36 Portfolio Standard Deviation, % Now assume investor can also borrow and lend risk-free at 3%. This creates tangency p/f (24%, 21%) and a CML from Rf through this p/f.

16. Equilibrium And The Market PortfolioThe Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) • The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is the primary model for determining the required return on risky assets • Developed in mid-1960s, it is still used today—at least at a conceptual level • The CAPM says that Figure “Portfolios Of Risky & Risk-Free Assets” (repeated next slide) cannot represent an equilibrium result for assets not in portfolio M • Prices of assets in portfolio M would be bid up • Prices of all other assets would decline • Each asset will change in price until it offers an expected return that is commensurate with its risk • Equilibrium occurs when an asset’s expected return places it on the capital market line. • But how does risk influence an asset’s expected return?

17. Portfolios Of Risky & Risk-Free Assets(Reproduced For Example) E(RP) new efficient frontier borrowing • 16.5% B • 12% M old efficient frontier lending • 9% L1 A X • • RF=6% P 0 30%

18. Equilibrium And The Market Portfolio • Investors have access to similar sources of information, so economists say they have homogeneous expectations • Suggests everyone agrees on risk & return of specific assets • They will agree on efficient frontier, and will all hold same p/f • With homogeneous expectation, p/f M receives a special title, the market portfolio, with “market” risk, expected (R) • Proxy by expected return and risk on, say, S&P 500 Index • Line connecting M to Rfis the true Capital Market Line • Have been using the term rather loosely thus far • CML quantifies the risk-return tradeoff for p/fs of M and Rf • Eq 6.2 says E(Rp) equals Rf plus the market price of risk (term in brackets) times the p/f’s standard deviation, P: (Eq. 6.2)

19. Systematic Risk And Expected (Required) Return In The CAPM • Already know that only an asset’s nondiversifiable risk impacts the return variability of a well-diversified portfolio • Only the asset's systematic risk matters to an investor. • The CAPM defines systematic risk as the asset's return covariance with the market portfolio of risky assets • Specific risk measure used is called Beta,  [next slide] • Investors will only hold high-beta assets if offered high E(R) • Inclusion of high-beta assets raises p/f’s systematic risk • Inclusion of low-beta assets lowers p/f’s systematic risk • Equilibrium occurs when all assets’ expected return plots on the Security Market Line (SML) in next figure A&B • SML plots trade-off between E(R) and Beta, not std dev • SML connects Rf ( =0) and point [E(RM),  =1] • In equilibrium, all assets must plot on the SML

20. The Security Market Line E(RP) SML A • slope = E(Rm) - RF = MarketRisk Premium (MRP) RM • • RF=6% • B •  =1.0 i

21. Calculating Required Return Using The Security Market Line slope = E(Rm) – RF = MRP = 14% - 6% = 8% = Y ÷ X E(RP) SML 18% RM=14% 10% RF=6% 1.5 0.5 i =1.0 i

22. Estimating Betas • CAPM makes theoretical sense, but many practical problems • Does not uniquely identify market portfolio • Expresses relationship in (unobservable) expected return • CAPM a single-factor model in that only beta changes from one security to the next: • Unfortunately, “fixed” parameters Rf and E(RM) actually vary • Makes beta estimation and testing of CAPM very difficult • Fig A,B&C show beta estimations using weekly returns for three stocks versus a market index, Jan 2000-May 2001 • Sharper Image; high-beta (1.44), moderate R-square (0.19) • ConAgra: low-beta (0.11), low R-square (0.003) • Citigroup: intermediate beta (1.20), high R-square (0.50) • Differing levels of systematic & unsystematic risk cause differing R-squares • Systematic risk accounts for higher fraction of Citi’s total var

28. Calculate Required Return, R R = Rf + ß(Rm - Rf) Must assume either that return on the market, Rm, known or that market risk premium, MRP = (Rm - Rf), is known Example: If the rate of return on U.S T-Bills (Rf) is 2.0% and equity risk premium (Rm - Rf) is 8.0%, what would be the required return for: General Electric, ß=1.30 Procter & Gamble ß=0.60 Calculating Required Return, Given Beta And Expected Market Return Can now plot SML using Rf =2.0%, ßGE=1.30 , ßPG=0.60and Equity risk premium (Rm - Rf )=8.0%
