Modeling Stock Returns as Mixtures of Normals and Incorporating Black-Litterman Views in Portfolio Optimization
In this paper, we consider the basic problem of portfolio construction in financial engineering, and analyze how market-based and analytical approaches can be combined to obtain efficient portfolios. As a first step in our analysis, we model the asset returns as a random variable distributed according to a mixture of normal random variables. We then discuss how to construct portfolios that mini...
متن کاملPractical Bayesian Density Estimation Using Mixtures of Normals
Mixtures of normals provide a exible model for estimating densities in a Bayesian framework. But there are some diiculties with this model. First, standard reference priors yield improper posteriors; second, the posterior for the number of components in the mixture is not well deened (if the reference prior is used) and third, posterior simulation does not provide a direct estimate of the poste...
متن کاملAn input-oriented radial measure for returns to scale aggregation.
In production theory, it is necessary to be capable of predicting the production func- tion’s long-run behaviors. Hereof, returns to scale is a helpful concept. Returns to scale describes the reaction of a production function to the proportionally scaling all its input variables. In this regard, Data envelopment analysis (DEA) provides a com- prehensive framework for returns to scale evaluation...
متن کاملTwo Methods for Measuring the Environmental Returns to Scale Using Data Envelopment Analysis Approach
Nowadays, the assessment of environmental performance has received considerable attention by environmental strategy advocators and decision makers. In recent years, increased emission of CO2 into the air, water pollution, and global warming are universal problems all over the world. Therefore, development of firms with less CO2 emission is an important issue of attention in every area of produc...
متن کاملAn Alternative Trend-Cycle Decomposition using a State Space Model with Mixtures of Normals: Specifications and Applications to International Data
This paper first generalizes the trend-cycle decomposition framework of Perron and Wada (2005) based on an unobserved components models with innovations having a mixtures of Normals distribution, which is able to handle sudden level and slope changes to the trend function as well as outliers. We investigate how important are the differences in the implied trend and cycle compared to the popular...
