    Derivation of minimum variance portfolio

    Hi, I am going through the excel sheet (R8-P1-T1-Elton-CAPM-v3) in section 9, and I saw the formula to find out Wa for the Minimum variance portfolio. It is not very intuitive to see that that formula is the 1st derivative of the portfolio variance with respect Wa. I know the formula is not part...
