摘要: This paper proposes a novel approach to construct the optimal sparse portfolio weight for the global minimum variance (GMV) portfolio. An appropriate objective function with two l1-norm penalties where the first penalty is on the product of the inverse of the covariance matrix and the vector of ones and the other penalty is on the turnover of the updated weight, is proposed to get a sparse portfolio weight and reduce the transaction costs effectively. We develop an efficient algorithm based on the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) to solve the resultant constrained convex minimization problem. We show the advantages of our proposed approach through both theoretical and empirical analysis when the number of assets N and the sample size of asset returns T satisfying N/T → c for some c ∈ (0,∞). Extensive empirical studies show that the performance of our approach is superior to the plugging global minimum variance portfolio strategies in terms of lower out-of- sample volatility of portfolio returns and turnover of portfolio weights.
