Some problems with the Markowitz mean-variance model
Harry Markowitz’s mean-variance model for portfolio choice posits a linear relationship between the return of a portfolio and the returns of its component securities. This linear relationship does not hold in an ex post setting when monthly or quarterly returns are used. 1 The Standard Portfolio Selection Model Harry Markowitz begins Mean-Variance Analysis in Portfolio Choice and Capital Market...
متن کاملA Comparison of the Mean-Variance-Leverage Optimization Model and the Markowitz General Mean-Variance Portfolio Selection Model
The mean-variance-leverage (MVL) optimization model (Jacobs and Levy [2012, 2013]) tackles an issue not dealt with by the mean-variance optimization inherent in the general mean-variance portfolio selection model (GPSM) — that is, the impact on investor utility of the risks that are unique to using leverage. Relying on leverage constraints with a conventional GPSM, as is commonly done today, is...
متن کاملRisk-sensitivity and the mean-variance trade-off: decision making in sensorimotor control
Numerous psychophysical studies suggest that the sensorimotor system chooses actions that optimize the average cost associated with a movement. Recently, however, violations of this hypothesis have been reported in line with economic theories of decision-making that not only consider the mean payoff, but are also sensitive to risk, that is the variability of the payoff. Here, we examine the hyp...
متن کاملKeynes Meets Markowitz: The Trade-Off Between Familiarity and Diversification
We develop a model of portfolio choice that nests the views of Keynes—who advocates concentration in a few familiar assets—and Markowitz—who advocates diversification across assets. We rely on the concepts of ambiguity and ambiguity aversion to formalize the idea of an investor's "familiarity" toward assets. The model shows that when an investor is equally ambiguous about all assets, then the o...
متن کاملOn the Markowitz mean-variance analysis of self-financing portfolios
This paper extends the work of Markowitz (1952), Korkie and Turtle (2002) and others by first proving that the traditional estimate for the optimal return of self-financing portfolios always overestimates from its theoretic value. To circumvent the problem, we develop a bootstrap estimate for the optimal return of self-financing portfolios and prove that this estimate is consistent with its cou...
