Abstract

We present a simple stochastic representation for the joint distribution of sample estimates of three scalar parameters and two vectors of portfolio weights that characterize the minimum-variance frontier. This stochastic representation is useful for sampling observations efficiently, deriving moments in closed-form, and studying the distribution and performance of many portfolio strategies that are functions of these five variables. We also present the asymptotic joint distributions of these five variables for both the standard regime and the high-dimensional regime. Both asymptotic distributions are simpler than the finite-sample one, and the one for the high-dimensional regime, i.e. when the number of assets and the sample size go together to infinity at a constant rate, reveals the high-dimensional properties of the considered estimators. Our results extend upon T. Bodnar, H. Dette, N. Parolya and E. Thorstén [Sampling distributions of optimal portfolio weights and characteristics in low and large dimensions, Random Matrices: Theory Appl. 11 (2022) 2250008].
