According to this theory, these deviations are discounted to some initial instant; the square root of the sum of the squares of the capital values calculated in this way then gives a measure for the stability of the portfolio.

The fact is that it does not give an answer to such questions as, for example, within what limits a company's probable gain or loss will lie during different periods.
