This article attempts to measure performance of Type A and Type B funds relative to T-Bill rates and ISE-100 index in Turkey over the period of January 1998-June 2000 using Sharpe ratio, Treynor ratio, Jensen alpha, and Graham&Harvey index. 55 Type A, and 77 Type B Funds were included in the...

This paper examines the performance of investment strategies involving leveraged and inverse leveraged ETF pairs. As in Jiang and Peterburgsky's (2017) simulation analysis, the empirical analysis in this paper indicates that simple portfolios of bull/bear short positions constructed to...

Warren Buffett (1984) presents a group of investors with long-term performance records far superior than the market. Applying an array of prominent performance evaluation models, capturing relative, absolute, density based, and utility-based measures, does little to refute the conclusions of...

Dieser Beitrag entwickelt ein Verfahren, das die Komplexität der Endvermögensberechnung von Aktienanlagen unter Berücksichtigung der Besteuerung und regelmäßiger Portfolioumschichtung erheblich reduziert. Bisher ist eine vergleichbar präzise Berechnung wegen rekursiver Abhängigkeiten sehr...

The early work of Tobin (1958) showed that portfolio allocation decisions can be reduced to a two stage process: first decide the relative allocation of assets across the risky assets, and second decide how to divide total wealth between the risky assets and the safe asset. This so called...

The main contribution of this work is to provide a dynamic general equilibrium model of asset allocation, allowing to reconcile economic theory with several puzzling contradictions recently pointed out in the literature: (i) the asset allocation puzzle, (ii) the observed timevariation in...

Asymmetric shocks are common in markets; securities'; payoffs are not normally distributed and exhibit skewness. This paper studies the portfolio holdings of heterogeneous agents with preferences over mean, variance and skewness, and derives equilibrium prices. A three funds separation theorem...

This paper compares several investment strategies designed to exploit the low-beta anomaly. Although the notion of buying low-beta stocks and selling high-beta stocks is natural, a choice is necessary with respect to the relative weighting of high-beta stocks and low-beta stocks in the...

We test whether asymmetric preferences for losses versus gains as in Ang, Chen, and Xing (2006) also affect the pricing of cash flow versus discount rate news as in Campbell and Vuolteenaho (2004). We construct a new four-fold beta decomposition, distinguishing cash flow and discount rate betas...
