Abstract
In the modern era, finance is a tool that anyone is able to use to manage their wealth. People are eager to invest their extra money, and this piece is written with individual investors in mind who can utilize it as a resource when building a portfolio. In this study, the CAPM model and Markowitz model are used to determine the efficient frontier, capital allocation line, minimum risk portfolio, and optimal portfolio using three stocks chosen from various exchange markets and the SPX index. The data was analyzed to demonstrate that higher risk carries a higher expected return, and that the stock price also adheres to the normal distribution theory. Additionally, it covers the pertinent risk factors and how to diversify the risks. This paper offers guidance regarding the management of wealth for individual investors.
