Week 10 Wednesday

I spent the class studying the efficient frontier (from the modern portfolio theory). The theory was created by Harry Markowitz in the 1950's and played a critical role in identifying bad investments (there was no actual framework investors used back then). The idea is to place your portfolio on the efficient frontier (but not on the negative slop of it) to optimize your portfolio. Luckily there have been some work in this field so I am able to reverse engineer the work of others to help me in mine.
