(b) Calculate the six-month 98% VaR for your designated stock using a bootstrapping procedure in Excel assuming independence in monthly returns. Use 200 bootstrapped samples. Present a histogram of the bootstrap distribution of portfolio values. Comment on your findings.
(c) Suppose a portfolio is created that comprises of $50,000 invested in your designated stock, $25,000 in ^AXJO and $25,000 in CBA.AX. Calculate the six-month 98% VaR for your designated stock using a bootstrapping procedure. Assume independence in returns over time, but that your designated stock may be correlated with ^AXJO and CBA.AX. Use 200 bootstrapped samples. Present a histogram of the bootstrap distribution of portfolio values. Comment on your findings.

Calculate the six-month 98% VaR for your portfolio ($50,000 invested in your designated stock, $25,000 in ^AXJO and $25,000 in CBA.AX) using a block bootstrapping procedure that assumes serial correlation of returns of 3 months. Assume that your designated stock may be correlated with ^AXJO and CBA.AX. Use 200 bootstrapped samples. Present a histogram of the bootstrap distribution of portfolio values.
