Traditional mean variance optimization assumes that future returns and covariances of all the assets in the universe are known exactly. In practice, these input parameters are subject to estimation errors that may render the output of the optimization algorithm essentially useless. Here we...

To examine the familiar tradeoff between risk and return in financial investments, we use a rolling two-stage stochastic program to compare mean-risk optimization models with time series momentum strategies. In a backtest of allocating investment between a market index and a risk-free asset, we...

We demonstrate that the parameters controlling skewness and kurtosis in popular equity return models estimated at daily frequency can be obtained almost as precisely as if volatility is observable by simply incorporating the strong information content of realized volatility measures extracted...
