The authors demonstrated in earlier papers that a maximal predictability portfolio (MPP) using a dynamic strategy leads to a significantly better ex-post performance than the one based on a static strategy and the index. In this paper, we will consider a maximal predictability portfolio subject...

We distinguish between three types of outliers in a one-way random effects model. These are formally described in terms of their position relative to the main part of the observations. We propose simple rules for identifying such outliers and give an example which involves median-based statistics.

Ordinary least squares (OLS) is omnipresent in regression modeling. Occasionally, least absolute deviations (LAD) or other methods are used as an alternative when there are outliers. Although some data adaptive estimators have been proposed, they are typically difficult to implement. In this...
