Assume that the short-term risk-free rate is 6%, the market index S&P500 is expected to pay returns of 30% with the standard deviation equal to 40%. Asset A pays on average 10%, has a standard deviation equal to 40% and is NOT correlated with the S&P500. Asset B pays on average 16%, also has a standard deviation equal to 40% and has a correlation of 1 with the S&P500. Determine whether asset A and B are overvalued or undervalued, and explain why.
(Beta of asset i (?i) = ?i ?iM / ?M, where ?i, ?M are standard deviations of asset i and market portfolio, ?iM is the correlation between asset i and the market portfolio)
