One of the most important skills a nurse needs is clinical judgment. This is a skill that can be learned. Reflect on your own ability to critically think and the reading for this module. When see yourself as a nurse and giving care, discuss what qualities and behaviors you possess that make you a person that would have good clinical judgment. What three strategies can you use to develop better clinical judgment? As a nurse, what areas of the nursing process do you think might be more challenging to you given the critical thinking and clinical judgment skills you have now?

How does the CV of the optimal portfolio compare with the CVs of its constituents?  What is the expected rate of return and standard deviation of the rate of return of the portfolio?

 
Course Learning Assessment 2 – CLO 1, CLO 3, CLO 4, CLO 5, CLO 6, CLO 7
This is a complete written report of your portfolio formation in a Word document. Your historical data and relevant derived values in tables can be pasted from your previous calculations in the Excel spreadsheet. Please provide explanations of all calculations and the justifications in Word format. Make sure to also paste all underlying Excel formulae that you used for calculations in the Word document.

Once again, provide the data that you presented in answering Part 2 of Professional Assignment 2.
Calculate the mean, variance, and the standard deviation of each security’s annual rate of return.
Calculate the correlation coefficient between every possible pair of securities’ annual rates of return.
Choose percentages of your initial investment that you want to allocate amongst the five (5) securities (weights in the portfolio). 

Create embedded formulae which generate statistical properties of the portfolio upon insertion of the weights. 
Observe the mean, the standard deviation, and the CV of the annual rate of return of the portfolio.

Find the combination of the weights that minimizes CV of the portfolio. 

How does the CV of the optimal portfolio compare with the CVs of its constituents? 
What is the expected rate of return and standard deviation of the rate of return of the portfolio?

Choose different values within the range of the standard deviation of the portfolio, and for each chosen value, locate the corresponding point on the efficient frontier by finding the weights that maximize the expected rate of return of the portfolio. 

Subsequently, construct the efficient frontier of your portfolio.    

Assume that you initially invested $1,000,000 in the portfolio and that the distribution of the annual rate of return of the portfolio is normal. 

What is the distribution of the return of the portfolio 20 years after its formation? 
Provide the graph of the distribution of the return of the portfolio.

Provide your explanations and definitions in detail and be precise. Comment on your findings. Provide references for content when necessary.

Examine this quote from Sun Tzu: “Thus those skilled in war subdue the enemy’s army without battle….They conquer by strategy.” How would you relate this to business policy and strategic management?

 Sun Tzu, the brilliant Chinese general and premier military strategist, lived 2,400 years ago. He wrote a book called The Art of War. His sayings and notes reflect a wonderful relevance to today’s strategic management of business, as well as the art of achieving a competitive advantage. The theme of the book is that “war is won not through strength but through skillful manipulation—a victory of the writing brush and brains over sword and strength” (Shlapentokh, 2006).
