      [For the entire collection see Zbl 0754.00008.] The convex hull \(C\) of the planar Brownian motion \(\{(X_ 1(t),X_ 2(t)):0\leq t\leq 1\}\) is shifted in such a way that the \(x\)-axis is tangential to \(C\) at the origin. Locally at the origin the boundary of the (shifted) convex hull is represented as \((x,f(x))\), where \(f(x)\) is a positive convex function. The main result states that \[ \limsup_{x\to 0}{f(x)\over| x|\log^ 2(1/| x|)}={\pi\over 2}. \]
