In this paper, we will propose a practical method for improving the performance of a maximal predictability portfolio (MPP) model proposed by Lo and MacKinlay and later extended by the authors. We will employ an alternative version of MPP using absolute deviation instead of variance as a measure...

The purpose of this paper is to show that an algorithm recently proposed by authors can in fact solve a maximal predictability portfolio (MPP) optimization problem, which is a hard nonconvex fractional programming optimization. Also, we will compare MPP with standard mean-variance portfolio...
