The MSR portfolio
The maximum Sharpe ratio, or MSR portfolio, which lies at the apex of the efficient frontier, can be constructed by looking for the portfolio with the highest Sharpe ratio.
Unfortunately, the MSR portfolio is often quite erratic. Even though the portfolio had a high historical Sharpe ratio, it doesn't guarantee that the portfolio will have a good Sharpe ratio moving forward.

# Sort the portfolios by Sharpe ratio
sorted_portfolios = RandomPortfolios.____(by=['Sharpe'], ascending=____)
# Extract the corresponding weights
MSR_weights = sorted_portfolios.iloc[0, 0:numstocks]
# Cast the MSR weights as a numpy array
MSR_weights_array = np.array(MSR_weights)
# Calculate the MSR portfolio returns
StockReturns['Portfolio_MSR'] = StockReturns.iloc[:, 0:numstocks].mul(____, axis=1).sum(axis=1)
# Plot the cumulative returns
