Abstract

This paper shows that a large-scale maximal predictability portfolio (MPP) optimization problem can be solved within a practical amount of computational time using absolute deviation instead of squared deviation in the definition of the coefficient of determination. Also, we will show that MPP portfolio outperforms the mean-absolute deviation portfolio using real asset data in Tokyo Stock Exchange.
