Question 1
(5) What is the estimate of SE^(σ^2FMAGX)?
Question 2
(5) What is SE^(ρ^VBLTX,FMAGX)?
Question 3
(15) For which assets do you reject the null hypothesis H0:μi=0 vs. H1:μi≠0 at the 5% significance level? Check all that apply.
Question 4
(15) For which assets do you reject the null hypothesis H0:ρij=0 vs. H1:ρij≠0 at the 5% significance level? Check all that apply.
Question 5
(15) For which assets do you reject the null hypothesis H0:rit∼normal vs. H1:rij∼not normal at the 5% significance level? Check all that apply.
Question 6
(20) For which of the following parameters do you expect your bootstrap SE value to be accurate? (Hint: Do the bootstrap distributions look normal?)
Question 7
(10) Under the assumptions of the Constant Expected Return Model, what is E[r¯2i], where r¯i=1T∑Tt=1rit?
(You may find the relation Var(Y)=E(Y2)−E(Y)2 useful.)
