Abstract
We propose a new portfolio optimization framework, partially egalitarian portfolio selection (PEPS). Inspired by the celebrated LASSO regression and its recent variant partially egalitarian LASSO (PELASSO) developed in [1] in the context of the forecast combinations problem in econometrics in [1], we regularize the mean-variance portfolio optimization of Markowitz by adding two regularizing terms that essentially zero out portfolio weights of some of the assets in the portfolio and select and shrink portfolio weights of the remaining assets towards equal weights to hedge against parameter estimation risk. We solve our PEPS formulations by applying Gurobi 9.0 mixed integer optimization (MIO) solver that allow us to tackle large-scale portfolio problems. We test our PEPS portfolios against an array of classical portfolio optimization strategies on a number of datasets in the US equity markets. The PEPS portfolios exhibit the highest out-of-sample Sharpe ratios in all instances considered.
期刊介绍：
Operations Research Letters is committed to the rapid review and fast publication of short articles on all aspects of operations research and analytics. Apart from a limitation to eight journal pages, quality, originality, relevance and clarity are the only criteria for selecting the papers to be published. ORL covers the broad field of optimization, stochastic models and game theory. Specific areas of interest include networks, routing, location, queueing, scheduling, inventory, reliability, and financial engineering. We wish to explore interfaces with other fields such as life sciences and health care, artificial intelligence and machine learning, energy distribution, and computational social sciences and humanities. Our traditional strength is in methodology, including theory, modelling, algorithms and computational studies. We also welcome novel applications and concise literature reviews.
