Doing an excel for meBuild a balanced portfolio in it.– May ignore, keep track, or make reasonable assumptions about transaction costs.– Assume you start with $1,000,000 to invest.– Be accurate and specific about the amount you invest in each of the securities in the portfolio. If you decide not to invest all the fund in risky assets, you put the rest in T-bills (or equivalent riskfree assets). If you borrow, make reasonable assumptions about costs.– May choose to rebalance your portfolio once during the investment period.– Only stocks (no ETFs, mutual funds, etc.) – Follow typical margin requirements



  • Set your investment objectives and strategy.
