Abstract

With the development of stock portfolio theory, the research value of risk dispersion has become increasingly prominent. How investors construct portfolios has become an important research topic. In the article, we use recent 20 years of historical daily total return data for ten stocks, which belong in groups to three-four different sectors according to Yahoo Finance, the S&P 500 equity index, which include a total of eleven risky assets and a proxy for a risk-free rate, 1-month Fed Funds rate. We calculate all proper optimization inputs for the full Markowitz model, alongside the Index model. Using these optimization inputs for Markowitz model and Index model will need to the regions of permissible portfolios for the five different cases of the additional constraints. We present the results in both the tabular and graphical form with the objective to make inferences and comparisons between the sets of constraints for each optimization problem and between the Markowitz model and Index model. We hope to get an optimal portfolio by comparing the two models under different conditions. Also, we hope that the results of this project can lay a foundation for future on data analysis and investment portfolio creation.
