问题如下:
Eunice, an analyst from an investment company, recently made the following statements about an equally-weighted portfolio consisting of a large number of assets:
Statement 1: Average variance of the individual assets contributes the most to the volatility of the portfolio.
Statement 2: Standard deviation of the individual assets contributes the most to the volatility of the portfolio.
Statement 3: Average covariance between all pairs of assets contributes the most to the volatility of the portfolio.
Which statement is most correct?
选项:
A.Statement 1.
B.Statement 2.
C.Statement 3.
