New Research Tool: Mean Variance Optimizer with Hedonic Adjustment
The Mean Variance Optimizer with Hedonic Adjustment.xls workbook is now available. The workbook has two main worksheets:
1) Optimize - a traditional mean-variance optimizer (MVO). This spreadsheet calculates an "efficient frontier" of portfolios that serves as a starting point for the hedonic adjustment process.
2) Hedonic Adjustment - Adjusts MVO output to reflect the unequal "pain-to-pleasure" of losses versus gains, given an investor's degree of loss aversion at a specified target level of return. Applies the methodology outlined in The Hedonically Adjusted Efficient Frontier, using a total sample size of 10,000 outcomes.
