  1. Risk and Return Riccardo Colacito

  2. Roadmap • Rates of Return • Holding Period Return • Arithmetic and Geometric Averages • Annual Percentage Rate and Effective Annual Rate • Summary Statistics of rates of return • Probability Distribution • Expected Return • Variance, Covariance and Standard Deviation • Other properties • Historical record of Bills, Bonds, and Stocks • Risk premia from 1926-2003? • Inflation and Real Rates of Return

  3. Holding Period Return

  4. Rates of Return: Single Period Example Ending Price = 24 Beginning Price = 20 Dividend = 1 HPR = ( 24 - 20 + 1 )/ ( 20) = 25%

  6. Returns Using Arithmetic and Geometric Averaging Arithmetic ra = (r1 + r2 +... rn) / n ra = (.10 + .25 - .20 + .25) / 4 = .10 or 10% Geometric rg = [(1+r1) (1+r2) .... (1+rn)]1/n - 1 rg = [(1.1) (1.25) (.8) (1.25)]1/4 - 1 = (1.5150) 1/4 -1 = .0829 = 8.29%

  8. Quoting Conventions • Annual Percentage Rate APR = (periods in year) X (rate for period) • Effective Annual Rate EAR = ( 1+ rate for period)Periods per yr – 1 • Example: monthly return of 1% APR = 1% X 12 = 12% EAR = (1.01)12 - 1 = 12.68%

  10. Probability distribution • Definition: list of possible outcomes with associated probabilities • Example:

  11. Probability distribution: figure

  12. Normal distribution

  13. Notation • Let p(i) denote the probability with which state i occurs • Then • p(1)=0.1 • p(2)=0.2 • p(3)=0.4 • p(4)=0.2 • p(5)=0.1

  15. Expected Return S E ( r ) = p ( s ) r ( s ) s Definition: • p(s) = probability of a state • r(s) = return if a state occurs • 1 to s states

  16. Numerical Example E(r) = (.1)(-2) + (.2)(-1) + (.4)(0) + (.2)(1) + (.1)(2) = 0

  18. Why do we need the variance? • Two variables with the same mean. • What do we know about their dispersion?

  19. Measuring Variance or Dispersion of Returns S 2 Variance = p ( s ) [ r - E ( r )] s s Standard deviation = variance1/2 Why do we take squared deviations?

  20. Numerical example Var = .1 (-2-0)2 + .2 (-1-0)2 + .4 (0-0)2 + .2 (1-0)2 + .1 (2-0)2 = 1.2 Std dev= (1.2)1/2 = 1.095

  21. One important property of variance and standard deviation • Let w be a constant Var(wxr) = w2x Var(r) • Similarly Std Dev(wxr) = w x Std Dev(r)

  22. Covariance: Preliminaries • Covariance • The extent at which two assets tend to move together • Can be positive or negative • Correlation • Same idea of covariance, but bounded between -1 and 1

  23. Covariance: definition

  24. Correlation: definition

  25. Correlation (cont’d)

  26. Other properties - -

  27. Correlation=-1

  28. Correlation=+1

  29. Correlation=0

  31. Characteristics of Probability Distributions 1) Mean: most likely value 2) Variance or standard deviation 3) Skewness * If a distribution is approximately normal, the distribution is described by characteristics 1 and 2

  32. Skewed Distribution: Large Negative Returns Possible Median Negative Positive r

  33. Skewed Distribution: Large Positive Returns Possible Median Negative r Positive

  35. Risk premium • An expected return in excess of that of a risk free rate • Example • The expected return on the S&P500 is 9% • The return on a 1-month T-bill is 3% • The risk premium is 6% (9%-3%)
