MEASURES OF DISPERSION
Dispersion measures variability around a measure of central tendency.
If mean return represents reward, then dispersion represents risk.

• Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) MAD =
𝑛
- The arithmetic average of the absolute value of deviations from the mean.
- For the country return data, the MAD is 7.04%.

VARIANCE OF A PORTFOLIO OF ASSETS
Variance can be determined for N securities in a portfolio
using the formulas below. Cov(Ri, Rj) is the covariance of
returns between security i and security j and can be
expressed as the product of the correlation between the
two returns (ρi,j) and the standard deviations of the two
assets, Cov(Ri, Rj) = ρi,j σiσj.

CHEBYSHEV’S INEQUALITY
This expression gives the minimum proportion of values, p, within k
standard deviations of the mean for any distribution whenever k > 1.
10
CHEBYSHEV’S INEQUALITY
Focus on: Calculating Proportions Using Chebyshev’s Inequality
• For our country data, the mean is –31.25% and the sample standard deviation
is 9.95%.
• Lower cutoff at 1.25 standard deviations:
–31.25% – 1.25 (9.95%) = – 43.6875%
• Upper cutoff at 1.25 standard deviations:
–31.25% + 1.25 (9.95%) = – 18.8125%

ASSUMPTIONS OF THE CAPM
Investors are risk-averse, utility-maximizing, rational
individuals.
Markets are frictionless, including no transaction costs or
taxes.
