Use the means and standard deviations of return for MSFT and TSLA in percent per month that are reported here. mean SD MSFT 2.04 6.61 TSLA 1.43 11.04 Plot four opportunity sets, one for each of the following correlations: • 0.12 (actual monthly correlation) • 1.00 • 0.50 • -1.00 Plot the opportunity sets for each of the four correlations as the weights in MSFT and TSLA vary from -0.20 to 1.20 in increments of at least 0.05. So, MSFT starts with -0.20 and TSLA with 1.20. Then MSFT has -0.15, and TSLA has 1.15. Roll through until MSFT has 1.20, and TSLA has -0.20. The greater the number of portfolios, the nicer your pictures will look. Overlay these four opportunity sets on the same axes so that you can see how changing the correlation changes the opportunity set. Upload a picture of your plot.
