  2. Markowitz model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markowitz_model

    For example, at risk level x 2, there are three portfolios S, T, U. But portfolio S is called the efficient portfolio as it has the highest return, y 2 , compared to T and U[needs dot]. All the portfolios that lie on the boundary of PQVW are efficient portfolios for a given risk level.

  3. Merton's portfolio problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merton's_portfolio_problem

    Merton's portfolio problem is a problem in continuous-time finance and in particular intertemporal portfolio choice.An investor must choose how much to consume and must allocate their wealth between stocks and a risk-free asset so as to maximize expected utility.

  4. Cochran's C test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cochran's_C_test

    Cochran's test, [1] named after William G. Cochran, is a one-sided upper limit variance outlier statistical test .The C test is used to decide if a single estimate of a variance (or a standard deviation) is significantly larger than a group of variances (or standard deviations) with which the single estimate is supposed to be comparable.

  5. Modern portfolio theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_portfolio_theory

    In contrast, modern portfolio theory is based on a different axiom, called variance aversion, [27] and may recommend to invest into Y on the basis that it has lower variance. Maccheroni et al. [ 28 ] described choice theory which is the closest possible to the modern portfolio theory, while satisfying monotonicity axiom.

  6. Kelly criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelly_criterion

    Example of the optimal Kelly betting fraction, versus expected return of other fractional bets. In probability theory, the Kelly criterion (or Kelly strategy or Kelly bet) is a formula for sizing a sequence of bets by maximizing the long-term expected value of the logarithm of wealth, which is equivalent to maximizing the long-term expected geometric growth rate.

  7. Capital allocation line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_allocation_line

    An example capital allocation line. As illustrated by the article, the slope dictates the amount of return that comes with a certain level of risk. Capital allocation line (CAL) is a graph created by investors to measure the risk of risky and risk-free assets. The graph displays the return to be made by taking on a certain level of risk.

  8. Hedge relationship - Wikipedia

    If the ratio is between 0.8 and 1.25 (4/5 - 5/4) under all scenarios - the "80:125 rule" - then hedge accounting may be applied. Regression analysis . A similar approach, but here regressing the expected changes in these values at relevant future time periods - usually financial reporting dates - so as to demonstrate the strength of the hedge ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_variance_swap

    A conditional variance swap is a type of variance swap or swap derivative product that allows investors to take exposure to volatility in the price of an underlying security but only while the underlying security is within a pre-specified price range.
