I'm doing my MSc in Finance and this channel has been incredible for helping me utilise what I have learned practically and enforces what is contained in the course materials. Truly a youtube gem!
Is the right table presenting variance or std deviation? since the formula for the portfolio risk is std deviation power 2, but in your calculation you didn't power 2 the std deviation.
Actually the table is called the Covariance table, but you just use sigma symbol to represent. It is a bit misleading, if the sigma table represents the Covariance Matrix, then the formula itself in the excel for calculating the S.D. for the portfolio does not need to "Power" to 2 for stock A, stock B and stock C itself. Please clarify further a bit for it.
your video does a better job explaining than my professor.
Thank you very much!

That really means a lot Josh! Thank you and all the best with your Masters!

I was also confused, but author haven't answered yet

This was very helpful. 1 question: what were the weights associated with the variance/covariance matrix? Thank you :)
