The high sensitivity of optimized portfolios to estimation errors has prevented their practical application. To mitigate this sensitivity, we propose a new portfolio model called a Deeply Equal-Weighted Subset Portfolio (DEWSP). DEWSP is a subset of top-N ranked assets in an asset universe, the members of which are selected based on the predicted returns from deep learning algorithms and are equally weighted. Herein, we evaluate the performance of DEWSPs of different sizes N in comparison with the performance of other types of portfolios such as optimized portfolios and historically equal-weighed subset portfolios (HEWSPs), which are subsets of top-N ranked assets based on the historical mean returns. We found the following advantages of DEWSPs: First, DEWSPs provides an improvement rate of 0.24% to 5.15% in terms of monthly Sharpe ratio compared to the benchmark, HEWSPs. In addition, DEWSPs are built using a purely data-driven approach rather than relying on the efforts of experts. DEWSPs can also target the relative risk and return to the baseline of the EWP of an asset universe by adjusting the size N. Finally, the DEWSP allocation mechanism is transparent and intuitive. These advantages make DEWSP competitive in practice.

The fundamental principle in Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT) is based on the quantification of the portfolios risk related to performance. Although MPT has made huge impacts on the investment world and prompted the success and prevalence of passive inv esting, it still has shortcomings in real-world applications. One of the main challenges is that the level of risk an investor can endure, known as emph{risk-preference}, is a subjective choice that is tightly related to psychology and behavioral science in decision making. This paper presents a novel approach of measuring risk preference from existing portfolios using inverse optimization on the mean-variance portfolio allocation framework. Our approach allows the learner to continuously estimate real-time risk preferences using concurrent observed portfolios and market price data. We demonstrate our methods on real market data that consists of 20 years of asset pricing and 10 years of mutual fund portfolio holdings. Moreover, the quantified risk preference parameters are validated with two well-known risk measurements currently applied in the field. The proposed methods could lead to practical and fruitful innovations in automated/personalized portfolio management, such as Robo-advising, to augment financial advisors decision intelligence in a long-term investment horizon.
We propose a novel approach to infer investors risk preferences from their portfolio choices, and then use the implied risk preferences to measure the efficiency of investment portfolios. We analyze a dataset spanning a period of six years, consistin g of end of month stock trading records, along with investors demographic information and self-assessed financial knowledge. Unlike estimates of risk aversion based on the share of risky assets, our statistical analysis suggests that the implied risk aversion coefficient of an investor increases with her wealth and financial literacy. Portfolio diversification, Sharpe ratio, and expected portfolio returns correlate positively with the efficiency of the portfolio, whereas a higher standard deviation reduces the efficiency of the portfolio. We find that affluent and financially educated investors as well as those holding retirement related accounts hold more efficient portfolios.

We develop the idea of using Monte Carlo sampling of random portfolios to solve portfolio investment problems. In this first paper we explore the need for more general optimization tools, and consider the means by which constrained random portfolios may be generated. A practical scheme for the long-only fully-invested problem is developed and tested for the classic QP application. The advantage of Monte Carlo methods is that they may be extended to risk functions that are more complicated functions of the return distribution, and that the underlying return distribution may be computed without the classical Gaussian limitations. The optimization of quadratic risk-return functions, VaR, CVaR, may be handled in a similar manner to variability ratios such as Sortino and Omega, or mathematical constructions such as expected utility and its behavioural finance extensions. Robustification is also possible. Grid computing technology is an excellent platform for the development of such computations due to the intrinsically parallel nature of the computation, coupled to the requirement to transmit only small packets of data over the grid. We give some examples deploying GridMathematica, in which various investor risk preferences are optimized with differing multivariate distributions. Good comparisons with established results in Mean-Variance and CVaR optimization are obtained when ``edge-vertex-biased sampling methods are employed to create random portfolios. We also give an application to Omega optimization.
The first moment and second central moments of the portfolio return, a.k.a. mean and variance, have been widely employed to assess the expected profit and risk of the portfolio. Investors pursue higher mean and lower variance when designing the portf olios. The two moments can well describe the distribution of the portfolio return when it follows the Gaussian distribution. However, the real world distribution of assets return is usually asymmetric and heavy-tailed, which is far from being a Gaussian distribution. The asymmetry and the heavy-tailedness are characterized by the third and fourth central moments, i.e., skewness and kurtosis, respectively. Higher skewness and lower kurtosis are preferred to reduce the probability of extreme losses. However, incorporating high-order moments in the portfolio design is very difficult due to their non-convexity and rapidly increasing computational cost with the dimension. In this paper, we propose a very efficient and convergence-provable algorithm framework based on the successive convex approximation (SCA) algorithm to solve high-order portfolios. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm framework is demonstrated by the numerical experiments.
We study the Markowitz portfolio selection problem with unknown drift vector in the multidimensional framework. The prior belief on the uncertain expected rate of return is modeled by an arbitrary probability law, and a Bayesian approach from filteri ng theory is used to learn the posterior distribution about the drift given the observed market data of the assets. The Bayesian Markowitz problem is then embedded into an auxiliary standard control problem that we characterize by a dynamic programming method and prove the existence and uniqueness of a smooth solution to the related semi-linear partial differential equation (PDE). The optimal Markowitz portfolio strategy is explicitly computed in the case of a Gaussian prior distribution. Finally, we measure the quantitative impact of learning, updating the strategy from observed data, compared to non-learning, using a constant drift in an uncertain context, and analyze the sensitivity of the value of information w.r.t. various relevant parameters of our model.
