Consider the following two, completely separate, economies.  The expected return and volatility of all stocks in both economies is the same.  In the first economy, all stocks move together-in good times all prices rise together and in bad times they all fall together.  In the second economy, stock returns are independent-one stock increasing in price has no effect on the prices of other stocks.  Assuming you are risk-averse and you could choose one of the two economies in which to invest, which one would you choose?  Explain.
