چکیده

The classical portfolio problem is a problem of distributing capital to a set of securities. By generalizing the set of securities to a set of investment strategies (or security-rule pairs), this study proposes an investment strategy portfolio problem, which becomes a problem of distributing capital to a set of investment strategies. Since the investment strategy portfolio problem can be formulated as a combination optimization problem, a new combination genetic algorithm is proposed for solving the new investment strategy portfolio problem. Experimental results show that the idea of investment strategy portfolios is feasible and the combination genetic algorithm is effective on the investment strategy portfolio problem. 2008 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved.

Comparison of Portfolio Optimization for Investors at Different Levels of Investors' Risk Aversion in Tehran Stock Exchange with Meta-Heuristic Algorithms

The gaining returns in line with risks is always a major concern for market play-ers. This study compared the selection of stock portfolios based on the strategy of buying and retaining winning stocks and the purchase strategy based on the level of investment risks. In this study, the two-step optimization algorithms NSGA-II and SPEA-II were used to optimize the stock portfolios. In order to de...

A Particle Swarm Optimisation Approach in the Construction of Optimal Risky Portfolios

In this paper, we apply particle swarm optimisation to the construction of optimal risky portfolios for financial investments. Constructing an optimal risky portfolio is a high-dimensional constrained optimisation problem where financial investors look for an optimal combination of their investments among different financial assets with the aim of achieving a maximum reward-to-variability ratio...

Dynamic Trading Strategies and Portfolio Choice

Traditional mean-variance efficient portfolios do not capture the potential wealth creation opportunities provided by predictability of asset returns. We propose a simple method for constructing optimally managed portfolios that exploits the possibility that asset returns are predictable. We implement these portfolios in both single and multi-period horizon settings. We compare alternative port...

Use of Genetic Algorithms for Optimal Investment Strategies

In this project, a genetic algorithm (GA) is used in the development of investment strategies to decide the optimum asset allocations that back up a portfolio of term insurance contracts and the re-balancing strategy to respond to the changing financial markets, such as change in interest rates and mortality experience. The objective function used as the target to be maximized in GA allows us t...

Dynamic Portfolio Strategy Using Clustering Approach

The problem of portfolio optimization is one of the most important issues in asset management. We here propose a new dynamic portfolio strategy based on the time-varying structures of MST networks in Chinese stock markets, where the market condition is further considered when using the optimal portfolios for investment. A portfolio strategy comprises two stages: First, select the portfolios by ...
