The optimal strategies for a long-term static investor are studied. Given a portfolio of a stock and a bond, we derive the optimal allocation of the capitols to maximize the expected long-term growth rate of a utility function of the wealth. When the bond has constant interest rate, three models for the underlying stock price processes are studied: Heston model, 3/2 model and jump diffusion mod...

modelling and forecasting stock market is a challenging task for economists and engineers since it has a dynamic structure and nonlinear characteristic. this nonlinearity affects the efficiency of the price characteristics. using an artificial neural network (ann) is a proper way to model this nonlinearity and it has been used successfully in one-step-ahead and multi-step-ahead prediction of di...

We derive optimal portfolio weights for an investor who has specific beliefs regarding the distribution of a stock price at a future time. For example, a fundamental investor will want to take advantage of the information his analysis provides when constructing a portfolio. In this regard, we examine the optimal weights for models in which the investor believes that there is a range in which th...

We establish a model of insurance pricing with the assumption that the insurance price, insurer investment returns, and insured losses are correlated stochastic processes. We consider the effect of demand on price where the objective of the pricing model is to maximize the expected utility of the insurer’s terminal wealth. Based on a Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman (HJB) equation, we simultaneously sol...
