The goal of Portfolio Rebalancing is to provide mathematical and
empirical analysis of the effects of portfolio rebalancing on portfolio
returns and risks. The mathematical analysis answers the question of
when and why fixed-weight portfolios might outperform buy-and-hold
portfolios based on volatilities and returns. The empirical analysis,
aided by mathematical insights, will examine the effects of portfolio
rebalancing in capital markets for asset allocation portfolios and
portfolios of stocks, bonds, and commodities.
