Answer:

The portfolio return is 2.35%

Explanation:

The portfolio return is the weighted average of the individual stock returns that form up the portfolio. The weightage of each stock is the investment in each stock as a percentage of total investment in the portfolio. The return of a three stock portfolio can be calculated using the following formula,

rP = rA * wA  +  rB * wB  +  rC * wC

Where,

  • rA, rB & rC represents the individual stock returns
  • wA, wB & wC represents the weightage of each stock

rP = -1.53% * 0.25 + 8.07% * 0.3 + 0.7% * 0.45  

rP = 0.023535 or 2.3535% rounded off to 2.35%
