Portfolio Management: Markowitz, CAPM, and Modern Portfolio Theory

Up until now in Wilmott’s book, we have been hedging everything. Buy a derivative, hedge with the underlying, pocket risk-free returns. Banks love it. But not everyone plays that game. Fund managers buy and sell assets trying to beat the bank rate. They take risk on purpose. Chapter 18 is about doing that intelligently.

Portfolio Theory, CAPM, and Arbitrage Pricing Explained Simply

The second half of Chapter 5 in Artificial Intelligence in Finance covers three theories that shaped how Wall Street thinks about investing. Mean-Variance Portfolio theory, the Capital Asset Pricing Model, and Arbitrage Pricing Theory. These ideas have been in every finance course since the 1960s. Hilpisch walks through them with actual Python code instead of just abstract math.
