This paper considers the portfolio problem for high dimensional data when the dimension and size are both large.We analyze the traditional Markowitz mean-variance (MV) portfolio by large dimension matrix theory, and find the spectral distribution of the sample covariance is the main factor to...

In this paper, we propose a multivariate market model with returns assumed to follow a multivariate normal tempered stable distribution. This distribution, defined by a mixture of the multivariate normal distribution and the tempered stable subordinator, is consistent with two stylized facts...

In this work, we propose an ARMA(1,1)-GARCH(1,1) model with standard classical tempered stable (CTS) innovations for historical daily returns of 29 selected stocks. The non-Gaussian nature of the innovations captures the fat-tail property observed in data. The dependency between different assets...

In the paper, we consider the application of the theory of probability metrics in several areas in the eld of nance. First, we argue that specially structured probability metrics can be used to quantify stochastic dominance relations. Second, the methods of the theory of probability metrics can...

We consider classes of reward-risk optimization problems that arise from different choices of reward and risk measures. In certain examples the generic problem reduces to linear or quadratic programming problems. We state an algorithm based on a sequence of convex feasibility problems for the...

This paper examines the economic implications of new factor models and shows that the Hou, Xue, and Zhang (HXZ, 2015a) four-factor model outperforms the Fama and French (FF5, 2015a) five-factor model for investing in anomalies in- and out-of-sample. The difference in certainty-equivalent returns...

This study employs the Vector Autoregressive-Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (VAR-AGARCH) model to examine both return and volatility spillovers from the USA (developed) and China (Emerging) towards eight emerging Asian stock markets during the full sample period, the...

This study uses the BEKK-GARCH model to examine the return-and-volatility spillover between the world-leading markets (USA and China) and four emerging Latin American stock markets over the global financial crisis of 2008 and the crash of the Chinese stock market of 2015. Regarding return...
