It is well established that in a market with inclusion of a risk-free asset the single-period mean-variance efficient frontier is a straight line tangent to the risky region, a fact that is the very foundation of the classical CAPM. In this…

In this paper, we consider a frequency-based portfolio optimization problem with $m \geq 2$ assets when the expected logarithmic growth (ELG) rate of wealth is used as the performance metric. With the aid of the notion called dominant…

In the trading process, financial signals often imply the time to buy and sell assets to generate excess returns compared to a benchmark (e.g., an index). Alpha is the portion of an asset's return that is not explained by exposure to this…
