【Answer to question 1】B
【analysis】
B is correct. Cov(A,B) = ρABσAσB = 0.75 × 0.4 × 0.3 = 0.09
A is incorrect. Variance is used instead of standard deviation. Covariance is incorrectly calculated as 0.75 × 0.16 × 0.09 = 0.0108.
C is incorrect. Covariance is incorrectly calculated as [(0.4 × 0.3)/0.75] = 0.16.
【Answer to question 2】B
【analysis】
B is correct.
A is incorrect because it calculates the Sharpe ratio instead of beta: (19.9% – 1.0%)/18.5% = 1.02.
C is incorrect because it is the ratio of the standard deviation of the asset to the standard deviation of the market: (18.5%/15.9%) = 1.16.
成功=时间+方法，自制力是这个等式的保障。世上无天才，高手都是来自刻苦的练习。而人们经常只看到“牛人”闪耀的成绩，其成绩背后无比寂寞的勤奋。小编相信，每天都在勤奋练习，即使是一点点的进步，大家一定可以成为人人称赞的“牛人”。
