However‚ both of the two approaches are unstable and untenable to some extent then they also followed with many critiques and queries from the publicity. Here are some rational and underlying assumptions as follows. 2.1 Rationale and underlying assumptions of MV and CAPM approaches The total risk with a security has two elements. The first element
