I present evidence that a moving average (MA) trading strategy has a greater average return and skewness as well as a lower variance compared to buying and holding the underlying asset using monthly returns of value-weighted US decile portfolios sorted by market size, book-to-market, and...

I present evidence that a moving average (MA) trading strategy third order stochastically dominates buying and holding the underlying asset in a mean-variance-skewness sense using monthly returns of value-weighted decile portfolios sorted by market size, book-to-market cash-flow-to-price,...

I propose a new finite sample mean-variance efficiency test based on the risk reduction of the global minimum variance (GMV) portfolio. The GMV test statistic has a straightforward geometric and portfolio interpretation and complements nicely the celebrated GRS test in Gibbons, Ross and Shanken...

In this article, I propose an extension of the Treynor-Black model to a case where the investor is not fully invested in the stock market at the outset and there is no need to explicitly specify securities' expected returns. I derive explicit tangent portfolio weights based on a factor model of...

I propose a novel investment objective for portfolios fully invested in risky assets only. The new objective is based on achieving the highest possible excess return per unit of variance. The optimal portfolio is a linear combination of the tangent portfolio and the minimum variance portfolio...

I propose an exact finite sample test of the risk reduction of the global minimum variance (GMV) portfolio. The GMV test statistic has a straightforward geometric and portfolio interpretation and complements the celebrated GRS test in Gibbons, Ross and Shanken (1989). In practical applications,...
