Introduction

In this assignment you will use Excel to apply the risk-return analytic tools we covered in class and give specific asset allocation recommendations. The asset allocation analysis employs stock price data for three U.S. listed companies: Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Occidental Petroleum Corp (OXY), and Target (TGT).

Some additional information on the excel assignment is included in the folder “Excel_ Assignment”, available on NTULearn. Complete the spreadsheet using Excel for Office 2019, 2021 or 365. Some of the functions mentioned below may not work in other versions of Excel.

This assignment is due on the week of 14 October (in class). You are required to submit:
