You have just taken over as a fund manager at a brokerage firm. Your assistant, Tony, is briefing you on the current portfolio and states “We have too much of our portfolio in Alpha. We should probably move some of those funds into Gamma so we can achieve better diversification.” Is he right? Here is the data on all three stocks. Assume, for convenience, that all three securities do not pay dividends. Alpha, Current Price $35.00; Current Weight 79%; Next Year’s Price: Expansion $42.50, Normal $37.00, Recession $28.00; Beta, Current Price 27.50; Current Weight 21%; Next Year’s Price: Expansion 27.50, Normal 26, Recession 25; Gamma, Current Price $14.00; Current Weight 0%; Next Year’s Price: Expansion $15.50, Normal $16.40, Recession $8.40.

No.
