PORTFOLIO
A portfolio is a collection of financial investments like stocks, bonds, commodities, cash, and
cash equivalents, as well as their fund counterparts.
Stocks and bonds are generally considered a portfolio's core building blocks, though you may
grow a portfolio with many different types of assets—including real estate, gold, paintings,
and other art collectibles.
Diversification is a key concept in
portfolio management. This simply
means not to put all your eggs in one
basket. Diversification tries to
reduce risk by allocating investments
among various financial instruments,
industries, and other categories.
It aims to maximize returns by
investing in different areas that
would each react differently to the
same event. There are many ways to diversify. How you choose to do it is up to you. Your
goals for the future, your appetite for risk, and your personality are all factors in deciding
how to build your portfolio.
A person's tolerance for risk, investment objectives, and time horizon are all critical factors
when assembling and adjusting an investment portfolio.
PORTFOLIO BETA
Portfolio beta is a measure of the overall systematic risk of a portfolio of investments. It
equals the weighted-average of the beta coefficient of all the individual stocks in a portfolio.
FORMULA:
Where:
If Beta is less than 1, then its less risky and a good portfolio
If Beta is equals to 1, then its moderately risky
If Beta is more than 1, then its highly risky
PORTFOLIO RISK
Portfolio risk is a chance that the combination of assets or units, within the investments that
you own, fail to meet financial objectives. Each investment within a portfolio carries its
own risk, with higher potential return typically meaning higher risk.
In theory, portfolio risk can be eliminated by successful diversification: holding combinations
of investments that do not depend on the same circumstances to return a profit. In reality,
though, it is more probable that risks will be minimised and not eliminated entirely
FORMULA:
√ 2 2
PORTFOLIO RISK = ( W 1× σ 1 ) + (W 2 × σ 2 ) +(2× r 12× W 1 ×W 2 × σ 1 × σ 2)

PORTFOLIO RETURN
Portfolio return refers to the gain or loss realized by an investment
portfolio containing several types of investments. Portfolios aim to
deliver returns based on the stated objectives of the investment
strategy, as well as the risk tolerance of the type of investors
targeted by the portfolio.

The highest return I got is from HCL (9%) then from DABUR (5.85%) followed by ICICI
BANK (0.89%) and got the lowest returns from BAJAJ AUTO (-0.74%) and HAVELLS
(-0.14%).
CALCULATIONS & ANALYSIS
The Standard Deviation of BAJAJ AUTO is highest which depicts the high volatility of this
stock whereas ICICI bank having the lowest Standard Deviation among these depict that it
has low volatility.
Three stocks i.e. (HCL, DABUR, ICICI) have positive correlation with market which
depict that both the variables move in the same direction. An increase in market leads to an
increase in the stocks respectively and vice versa.
Two stocks i.e. (HAVELLS, BAJAJ AUTO) have negative correlation with market which
depict that both the variables move in opposite directions. An increase in market leads to a
Its always better to have stocks with both positive and negative correlation in the portfolio to
hedge our risk.
Portfolio beta is 0.07 which is less than 1 means it is less risky investment indicates this
portfolio has lower volatility. Low-beta stocks pose less risk but also lower returns.
Portfolio risk is 12.81% which clearly predict it as less risky investment but also lower level
of returns.
Portfolio return is highest for HCL and lowest for BAJAJ AUTO giving an overall expected
return of 3.98% which is a good return with low amount of risk.
CONCLUSION
Reason: There is recent fall in their stock price as they are facing supply-side issues
due to semiconductor shortages because of import restriction from China.
LEARNINGS
I haven’t done trading before so for me it’s a very informative and good project as I got the
opportunity to monitor the market from very closely.
Since the virtual platform is connected to the markets in real time so we get the first-hand
experience of how the market functions at different stages. As I was trading, I got to see the
complete analysis of my investments as I would get to see in real-time.
