For creating the Portfolio 1 – Single Efficient Frontier, we have selected 20 stocks from different industries of S&P 500. Those twenty stocks are – Autodesk
Inc. (ADSK), Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), American Express Company (AXP), Apple Inc. (AAPL), Coca-Cola Company (KO), FedEx Corporation (FDX), Intel
Corporation (INTC), Microsoft Corporations (MSFT), Nike Inc. (NKC), Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ), PPG Industries Inc. (PPG), Pfizer Inc. (PFE),
Electronic Arts Inc. (EA), Caterpillar Inc. (CAT), AutoZone Inc. (AZO), Air Products and Chemicals Inc. (APD), Best Buy Co. Inc. (BBY), CVS Health
Corporation (CVS), Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN), J P Morgan Chase & Co. (JPM). We have used these company’s 7 years data from January-2012 to
December-2020. We have created efficient frontier curve of these 20 stocks. From that efficient frontier curve, we have found this portfolio’s Tangency
portfolio or Sharpe Ratio. The highest one is 2.06. Then we have calculated the global minimum variance portfolio. From the point of global minimum
variance, we have found the Standard Deviation is 9.19%, Expected Return 16.15%, and Sharpe Ratio 1.684. If Mr. Tim’s risk aversion score is 4, he should
invest –

If the risk aversion score of Mr. Tim is 4, he should invest 430% in this portfolio.
For creating the Portfolio 2- Dual Efficient Frontier, we have selected 10 stocks out of 20 stocks which are Autodesk Inc. (ADSK), Alphabet Inc.
(GOOGL), FedEx Corporation (FDX), Intel Corporation (INTC), Microsoft Corporations (MSFT), Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ), Electronic Arts
Inc. (EA), Caterpillar Inc. (CAT), Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN), J P Morgan Chase & Co. (JPM). The tangency portfolio or Sharpe Ratio of Portfolio 2 Dual
Efficient Frontier is 1.899 whereas the tangency portfolio or Sharpe Ratio of Portfolio 1 Single Efficient Frontier is 2.06. Therefore, the Portfolio 1 Single
12/28/2020 www.portfoliovisualizer.com 18 of 20
Portfolio Visualizer Efficient Frontier
Efficient Frontier has the highest Sharpe Ration than Portfolio 2 Dual Efficient Frontier. As a result, Mr. Tim can invest in Portfolio 1 Single Efficient
Frontier since it has the highest Sharpe Ratio. From the point of Global minimum variance portfolio 2 Dual Efficient Frontier, we have found the Standard
Deviation is11.18%, Expected Return 17.79%, and Sharpe Ratio 1.540 whereas the from the point of global minimum variance, we have found the
Standard Deviation is 9.19%, Expected Return 16.15%, and Sharpe Ratio 1.684. Therefore, the global minimum variance of Portfolio 1 Single Efficient
Frontier is better than the Portfolio 2 Dual Efficient Frontier as the Standard Deviation of Portfolio 1 Single Efficient Frontier is less (9.19%) than the
Portfolio 2 Dual Efficient Frontier (11.18%). Hence, Mr. TIM will invest in Portfolio 1 Single Efficient Frontier.

For creating the Portfolio 3 - Equal Efficient Frontier, we have created an equal weighted portfolio of the 20 stocks using the same weight which is 5%. The
tangency portfolio or sharp ratio of Equal weighted portfolio is 1.65 which is the highest one. In compare to tangency portfolio/sharp ratio of Equal Efficient
Frontier from Portfolio 3, the highest tangency portfolio or sharp ratio of Single Efficient Frontier is 2.06 from Portfolio 1. So, between these two portfolios the
highest tangency portfolio or sharp ratio is 2.06 from portfolio 1 - Single Efficient Frontier. As a result, investors should invest in portfolio 1 - Single Efficient
Frontier since its tangency portfolio is the highest. Therefore, between Portfolio 1 and Portfolio 3 Tim should invest in Portfolio 1 as it has the highest tangency
portfolio or sharp ratio. GLOBAL MINIMUM VARIANCE. If Mr. Tim’s risk aversion score is 4, he should invest –
