Questions 1:
Last year, a portfolio manager earned a return of 12%. The portfolio’s beta was 1.5. For the same period, the market return was 7.5%, and the average risk-free rate was 2.7%. Jensen’s alpha for this portfolio is closest to:
A、 4.50%
B 、2.10%.
C 、0.75%
Questions 2:
A risk metric that measures how different an actual investment outcome could be from what the investor expects is most likely a:
A、 vega.
B 、duration.
C、 standard deviation.
View answer resolution
【Answer to question 1】B
【analysis】
B is correct. Jensen’s alpha = 0.12 – [0.027 + 1.5(0.075 – 0.027)] = 0.021, or 2.10%.
A is incorrect. This is calculated by subtracting the market return from the portfolio return: 0.12 – 0.75 = 0.045 or 4.5%.
C is incorrect. This is calculated without the inclusion of the risk-free return: 0.12 – 1.5(0.075) = 0.0075 or 0.75%.
【Answer to question 2】C
【analysis】
C is correct. Standard deviation is a measure of dispersion in a probability distribution and is used to describe the range of outcomes (minimum and maximum, centered on the expected outcome) that can occur with a particular probability. In contrast, duration measures the sensitivity of a security or portfolio to a change in market interest rates, and vega measures the sensitivity of a security (either a derivative or a security with derivative-like characteristics) to a change in the price volatility of the underlying asset.
A is incorrect because vega measures the sensitivity of a security (either a derivative or a security with derivative-like characteristics) to a change in the price volatility of the underlying asset.
B is incorrect because duration measures the sensitivity of a security or portfolio to a change in market interest rates.
成功=時間+方法，自制力是這個等式的保障。世上無天才，高手都是來自刻苦的練習。而人們經常只看到“牛人”閃耀的成績，其成績背后無比寂寞的勤奮。小編相信，每天都在勤奮練習，即使是一點點的進步，大家一定可以成為人人稱贊的“牛人”。
