1. A two-asset portfolio has the following characteristics. The correlation coefficient between the returns of the two assets is +0.1.

Calculate the expected return and the risk (i.e. standard deviation) of this two-asset portfolio. Comment on the risk of this portfolio relative to the two individual assets. Suppose the correlation coefficient between A and B was -1.0. How can an investor obtain a zero risk portfolio consisting of A and B?
