In the capital market, investment is usually utilized as a kind of tool for the investors

against the number one cnemy, the infation. By this way, investment is a better alternative than time deposit and cash instrument which offer less return on investment than capital market instrument. Investment can also be a tool for investors in growing their wealth and preserve it.

suffer in their investment. The investment has become like an enemy instead of a tool

to grow, protect and preserve the wealth of investors. Some investors have stated that

these relatively have high volatility) and increase the share of bonds and cash in their

portfolio. That is the thing the investor should do.

Capital market of Indonesia bas also suffered because of this world recession. The JCI as the main index price of BEI (Indonesia Stock Exchange) has shown a great downturn for the past one year.

The way the investors doing this should be by applying the best method ever conceived called modern portfolio theory

which was founded by Nobel Winner Henry Markowitz.

Risk and Return are just like two sides of one coin. The greater the return, the

greater the potential risk may embodied within the investment. The research in this

thesis will show investor on how to find out the lowest risk of a portfolio investment

by providing them with several structures of portfolio weighting. By this way, investor can compare and make the decision based on risk-return consideration and opportunity cost as well."
