The research data was conducted on LQ 45 shares during the period March - June 2012. The variables of this study were stock prices, returns, standard deviations of returns. The statistical method used is the F-test for homogeneity of variants. The results showed that only 16 stocks had optimal portfolios. Optimal portfolio, characterized by high return and low risk
