Selected elemets of ivestmet strategies are cosidered i the research. The ork cosists of to parts here the first oe focuses o brief descriptios of ivestmet strategies ad the other cocetrates o give data aalyses methods, methods hich may be useful i risk aalysis ad buildig ivestmet strategies. I the secod part, basig o data take from Stock Exchage i Warsa selected measures ad ivestmet portfolio compoets ere calculated ith the use of preseted formulae. There is a summary at the ed of article. Key ords Ivestmet strategies, portfolio theory, share risk measures, portfolio risk measures Itroductio Aalysis of fiacial data is oe of the fastest developig fields of ecoometrics ad theory of fiaces. The icrease of market risk ad the ecessity to protect agaist it are the mai stimuli developmet methods o fiacial data aalyses. The dyamic developmet of Polish fiacial market causes that there is a eed for better ad better tools for aalyses ad fiacial pheomea descriptios. More ad more efficiet class models are the result of lookig for combied modelig fiacial variables of time ros ad depedecies betee them. Recetly, capital markets have bee exposed to big risk resultig from fiacial crisis. The questio is hether there is a chace to geerate some positive profit ivestig o the stock market durig crisis ad hat elemets should a portfolio share cosist of so that it ould geerate a positive rate of retur at least risk. Pesio scheme i Polad is based o 3 structures i hich the Poles gather moey for their pesios. The first oe is obligatory for everyoe ad the moey are collected i Social Isurace Board (ZUS) hich is admiistered by govermet. The secod oe is also obligatory, based o the capital market ad is admiistered by Ope Retiremet Fuds (OFE). The third oe is volutary, also based o the capital market ad admiistered by private ivestors (objects). Ope Retiremet Fuds (OFE), hich have bee ivestig /amog others/ o the Polish market i recet years sho losses, hich ill result i little pesios for the Poles. The questio is hether the losses of OFE are due to decreasig stock prices, or hether the costs of ruig retiremet fuds are too high. Therefore, the aim of this research as to build a effective portfolio of shares based o data obtaied from Warsa Stock Exchage. It is obvious that there are may ivestmet strategies ad may ays of buildig up the compoets of portfolio. The article focuses o selected strategies.

2 5. meziárodí koferece Řízeí a modelováí fiačích rizik Ostrava VŠB-TU Ostrava, Ekoomická fakulta, katedra Fiací září 00 Basic otio of portfolio theory I 965, Jack Hirshleifer stated that A ivestmet is actually a curret recatatio for future profit. Hoever, the preset is relatively ell ko hile the future is a mystery. Therefore, a ivestmet is a recatatio of the certai profit for the ucertai oe. Ivestmet strategy is a set of cocrete rules ad behavior patters used by the ivestor to realize their decisios o buyig ad sellig o a give market. Differet kids of ivestmet techiques are used for differet strategies. The idea of ivestmet pyramid ell reflects the folloig levels, goig doards: Ivestmet strategy Ivestmet system Ivestmet style (disciplie i ivestig) Koledge of market (educatio, koledge about the market) Ivestmet style ca be described as a idividual feature of each ivestor. Psychology of fiacial markets advises that the ivestor should ork o their developmet ad use a certai ivestmet style, hich ill help to elimiate the to crucial problems each ivestor faces: ucertaity ad icosistecy. I this article, e should like to cocetrate o the structure of portfolio basig o data from Warsa Stock Exchage. I the classical theory of portfolio created by Harry Markoitz, to characteristics of securities are used: expected rate of retur ad rate of retur variace. Let us mark share price as P t i period (momet) t (look [, 4]). Rate of retur from share durig period t is a value P P = t t R t () Pt By usig historical data like rates of retur realized i past periods, a estimated expected rate of retur ca be calculated as a arithmetic mea. The expected rate of retur from share is a value R = R t t= () If the distributio of rate of retur is uko but the value of R have bee observed i the past, it may be assumed that chages i rates of retur i the future ill be close to those i the past, ad ill be oscillatig aroud the expected rate of retur. The arithmetic mea of rate of retur o a sample is the best estimator of uko expected rate of retur. While usig historical data, oe should ask the questio about the umber of periods take ito accout to calculate the expected rate of retur. The higher the umber of periods, the more stable arithmetic mea is (stable ith regard to little sesitivity to extreme values i ro). Hoever, it is the curret value of rate of retur together ith recet values that have the biggest ifluece o the future rate of retur value. Therefore, too log historical periods should ot be take ito cosideratio. This research covers the period of fiacial crisis so data take from May, 008 up to August, 00. The value of expected rate of retur does ot iclude differetiatio of rates of retur i historical periods take ito accout. Iformatio o differetiatio ca be obtaied by calculatig rate of retur variace ad its root stadard deviatio. The bigger the value of expected rate of retur ad loer stadard deviatio is, the loer the risk of ivestig i shares is. The bigger the differetiatio of rate of retur is, the bigger the risk is. The measure

3 5. meziárodí koferece Řízeí a modelováí fiačích rizik Ostrava VŠB-TU Ostrava, Ekoomická fakulta, katedra Fiací září 00 of share risk is the rate of retur variace. With the use of historical rates of retur from - periods the value of variace ca be calculated. Rate of retur variace Var ( R) = ( R t R) t= (3) No-egative values are used for variace of rates of retur. Variace is equal to zero he, ad oly he all take ito accout rates of retur equal the values of expected R. The bigger the historical deviatio of rates of retur is from expected values R, the bigger the variace is. The measure that is more frequetly used i risk aalyses for securities is the square root of variace, called stadard deviatio. Stadard deviatio of rate of retur is the value ( ) ( ( )) / s R = Var R = ( R t R) (4) t= The stadard deviatio of rate of retur presets the average deviatio of possible rate of returs ith regard to expected rate of retur. Stadard deviatio uses o-egative values, therefore, the bigger deviatio value is, the bigger the risk is. The ivestor, bearig i mid the rule of maximal icome ad miimal risk should buy shares at highest expected icome rate ad the loest stadard deviatio. By aalogy, the preseted above characteristics ca be used to defie for share portfolio. Expected portfolio rate of retur has bee preseted as / p = i E i= r ( r ) here: r p expected portfolio rate of retur i participatio of i-compay i portfolio E(r i ) expected share rate of retur for i-compay Variace of portfolio rate of retur is preseted as i (5) V p = i i= σ i + i jσ iσ j ρij (6) i= j = i+ here: V p variace of portfolio rate of retur σ i stadard deviatio of share rate of retur for i-compay ρij correlatio coefficiet of share rate of retur for i-compay ad j-compay Portfolio stadard deviatio is preseted as σ p = i i = σ i + i jσ iσ j ρij (7) i= j = i + Portfolio risk depeds ot oly o the risks of portfolio compoets but also o correlatio coefficiets of portfolio compoet rates of retur, here the more egative or slightly positive correlatio coefficiets of rates of retur are, the loer the risk of portfolio is.

For give risk (stadard deviatio) maximizes expected rate of retur.

Hoever, it should be stressed that i the research the strategy of buildig a portfolio as based oly o Warsa Stock Exchage shares. Obviously, a portfolio may also iclude other stock values like portfolio compoets free from risk, bods, optios, hich additioally differetiate the portfolio ad loers its risk. Nevertheless, as oe ca clearly see, eve a portfolio cosistig of oly shares brigs positive profit. Fiacial istitutios participatig i Stock Exchage i a efficiet ay have a chace for profit. If they, hoever, geerate losses it is probably due to bad ivestmet strategies, icorrect maagemet or too high maiteace costs of coductig fiacials activities. Referece [] HAUGEN ROBERT A.
