    • Portfolio scenario analysis is a tool used to analyze the performance of a portfolio under different scenarios or conditions.

    Expected Value of Return

    • When all outcomes have equal probabilities, the expected value of return is calculated by summing the products of each possible outcome and its probability.

    Asset Risk

    • The range of an asset's risk is calculated by the standard deviation of its returns.
