A Portfolio of Risky Assets and Its Intrinsic Properties

Abstract

We show a canonical expression of a univariate risky asset. We find out a canonical expression of the product of two univariate risky assets when they are jointly considered. We find out a canonical expression of a portfolio of two univariate risky assets when it is viewed as a stand-alone entity. We prove that a univariate risky asset is an isometry. We define different distributions of probability on R inside of metric spaces having di erent dimensions. We use the geometric property of collinearity in order to obtain this thing. We obtain the expected return on a portfolio of two univariate risky assets when it is viewed as a stand-alone entity. We also obtain its variance. We show that it is possible to use two di erent quadratic metrics in order to analyze a portfolio of two univariate risky assets. We consider two intrinsic properties of it. If a portfolio of two univariate risky assets is viewed as a stand-alone entity then it is an antisymmetric tensor of order 2. What we say can be extended to a portfolio of more than two univariate risky assets.
