Abstract
In the financial domain, portfolio optimization is of immense significance due to its potential for risk diversification and return enhancement. Particularly in today's society where inflation is on the rise, a well-constructed portfolio can effectively assist investors in maintaining or increasing real assets. This study selected 10 U.S. stocks and analyzed their data for the past decade. Utilizing Monte Carlo simulation, the study identified the efficient frontier and constructed three types of portfolios: equal-weighted (1/N) portfolio, global minimum variance portfolio (hereinafter referred to as GMVP), and maximum Sharpe ratio portfolio. The findings show that Microsoft and Nvidia have the greatest investment weights in the portfolio with the maximum Sharpe ratio. In the GMVP, JNJ and KO have the highest investment weights. By contrasting the three portfolios' combined performance with the S&P 500 index, both the maximum Sharpe ratio and the 1/N portfolios outperformed the benchmark index, while the GMVP performed below the benchmark. The findings of this study may offer insights into portfolio management for investors looking to increase their real assets.
