Summary of Sebastien Page's Beyond Diversification

I will make suggestions in this chapter. #3 The capital asset pricing model is a basic way to estimate expected returns for investors. It links expected returns to an objective measure of risk and current interest rate levels. However, there are issues with the model. #4 The Capital Asset Pricing Model is a theory that was developed to explain the relationship between risk and return, but it has been criticized for its flaws. It was developed by Nobel Prize winners William Sharpe and John Markowitz, but many academics have argued that it is flawed.

Judging expected returns requires balancing historical returns with both theoretical considerations and current market conditions. Expected Returns provides extensive empirical evidence, surveys of risk-based and behavioral theories, and practical insights.
