How can I calculate the portfolio beta by weighting individual stock's betas?
To calculate the portfolio beta by weighting individual stock's betas, you would multiply each stock's beta by its weight in the portfolio, and then sum up these values to get the overall portfolio beta.
What is the beta of a portfolio?

Is there a connection between the Sharpe optimal ratio and the CAPM?
The portfolio with the highest Sharpe ratio is on the efficient frontier, according CAPM. The Excel spreadsheet at the related link allows you to calculate a Sharpe optimal portfolio
How the beta of a portfolio can equal the market beta if 50 percent of the portfolio is invested in a security that has twice the amount of systematic risk as an average risky security?
The beta of a portfolio is the weighted average of the betas of its individual securities. If 50 percent of the portfolio is invested in a security with a beta of 2 (twice the market's systematic risk), and the other 50 percent is invested in a security with a beta of 0 (no systematic risk), the portfolio's beta can be calculated as follows: (0.5 * 2) + (0.5 * 0) = 1. This means that the portfolio has a beta of 1, equal to the market beta, due to the balancing effect of the low-risk security.
If portfolio a has a beta of 1.5 and portfolio z has a beta of -1.5 what do the two values indicate?
Simple scenario: Taking into account beta of index is set at 1.0; Lets say market increases by 5% Beta of 1.5 would indicate that the particular portfolio would increase by 7.5% as for beta of -1.5, the portfolio would decrease by 7.5% Beta is a measure of sensitivity of market base on the reference index. Negative beta would mean that the portfolio is inversely proportional to market performance.
What is the difference between an efficient portfolio and the optimal portfolio?
The difference is that an efficient portfolio is one that offers the lowest risk for the greatest return or vice versa. An optimal portfolio is one that is preferred by investors because it is tailored specifically to the individual's risk preferences.
Which is the best measure for an asset held in a diversified portfolio?
beta
Is a diversified portfolio with a beta of 2 twice as volatile as the market portfolio?
Yes. That's what it means. The "beta of 2" is a comparison to the market portfolio. The volatility measure is usually annualized standard deviation and the "market portfolio" is commonly the S&P 500 Index, but should be a broad index that is similar to the securities in the portfolio. The market portfolio used for a portfolio of international securities could be the MSCI EAFE Index, for example.
You form a portfolio by investing equally in A beta0.8 B beta1.2 the risk-free asset and the market portfolio What is your portfolio beta?
The portfolio consists of four stock: A, B, risk-free asset and the market. The weights will be 0.25 each and the portfolio beta = (0.25 x 0.8) + (0.25 x 1.2) + (0.25 x 0) + (0.25 x1) = 0.75 Akshita Mehta
