Besides this, it alsoentails the manner in which Treynor Black methodology assists is selecting suitable securities forbuilding optimal portfolio. It also depicts how Fama decomposition assists in calculating risk atdifferent levels and thereby aid in decision making. 1.

Hence, according to Treynor Black methodology, optimal portfolio isdeveloped by an analyst through doing alpha forecast. In this, considering the alpha value weightis assigned to the individual securities. Such model entails that when higher the alpha of securitythen high weight is given to the same. On the other side, lower weight is assigned to the volatilesecurities whose performances are highly influenced from firm specific news.

Besides this,through using solver function weights are assigned or given to the individual securities. Hence,by taking into consideration the weight or alpha value four securities have selected such as Mc-d,3M, P&G, PM and Primerica. Such optimal portfolio will prove to be beneficial for firm andhelps in meeting goals. 3.Calculating expected monthly risk, return, Beta, Sharpe and Treynor ratios of optimizedportfolio.Considering the Treynor Black methodology, optimized portfolio has created throughincluding 3M, P&G, Phillip Morris and Primerica. The below depicted table shows that risk andreturn associated with the portfolio of 4 securities account for .15% & 1.67% respectively. Inaddition to this, beta related to such portfolio is -.24 significantly. This aspect clearly exhibitsthat volatility risk associated with such securities are relatively lower over others.
