If there was something wrong with your Monte Carlo simulation on the midterm, fix it.Problem 2: On the same graph, plot the efficient frontier without allowing shorting (you can use fmincon or your favorite convex optimization software).Problem 3: Comment on the results.Image transcription textGiven {F XOM INTC} Returns = [-0. 12 0.39 -0.09] STDs = [sqrt(0.00115) sqrt(0.0003438) sqrt(0.000314382) ]Correlations = [1 0. 3931 0. 3512; 0.3931 1 0.2554; 0.3512 0. 2554 1 “Variance / Covariance Matrix formatshort V = zeros (3) for i=1:3 for j = 1:3 V(i, j) = Correlations(i, j)*STDs(i)*STDs(j); end end Make N ra… Show more… Show more Math Statistics and Probability ELE 8551 Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
