Can somebody help me how to read the chart on page 285? How do I see that the asset allocation is amost but not exactley surplus efficent???
how do i see the surplus efficient frontier and what does the x-axis mean? isnt that the risk? thanks for your help!!作者: bpdulog 时间: 2011-7-11 19:22
Say you accept risk = 10% std. dev, then draw vertical line starting at 10 on x axis. That gives allocation as 10% EAFE and 90% US LT Govt based on the hatch marks作者: canadiananalyst 时间: 2011-7-11 19:22
1, Exhibit 31 tells you that 60/40 is not on SEF(surplus EF).
2, Exhibit 32 shows you the weights, which can't be shown in Exhibit 31.
3, The x-axis in Exhibit 32 is 0-100, which is rescaled from 0-23% or so (standard deviation) in Exhibit 31.
Basically, it's saying that T-Bill has no place on the efficient frontier.
