Computing the Portfolio frontier for the risky assets is a multi-step process (Markowitz algorithm)
Step 1. Find the global minimum variance portfolio, compute its mean and variance
Step 2. Determine an efficent portfolio with target return equal to the largest expected return of the given set of as
mean and variance
Step 3. Compute the covariance between the returns on the global minimum variance portfolio found in step 1 an
the efficient portfolio found in step 2.
Step 4. Compute portfolio frontier using result that any portfolio on the frontier is a convex combination of any tw
portfolios.
