Correlation

Combining two assets traces a curved frontier of risk versus return. Because they are not perfectly correlated, some mixes have lower risk than either asset alone — the power of diversification. The pink point is the minimum-variance portfolio. Educational tool, not investment advice.

Governing equation

σ_{p}^{2} = w^{2} σ_{A}^{2} + (1 - w)^{2} σ_{B}^{2} + 2 w (1 - w) ρ σ_{A} σ_{B}, ρ = 0.20, w^{*} = 0%

Reading this result: The assets differ sharply in volatility, so the minimum-variance blend leans heavily toward the calmer one to hold total risk down.

Horizon (years)

Geometric Brownian motion models a price with constant drift and random volatility — the assumption behind Black-Scholes. Running hundreds of simulated paths reveals the full distribution of outcomes, not just an average. Educational tool, not investment advice.

Governing equation

S_{t + Δ t} = S_{t} e^{(0.07 - \frac{0. 2 ^{2}}{2}) Δ t + 0.2 Δ t Z}, \tilde{S}_{1} \approx $0

Reading this result: Median outcome is about $0, just under the drift-only $107 — GBM compounds in log-space, so volatility always pulls the typical path below the average.
