Abstract

With the assumptions that asset returns follow a stochastic multi-factor process with time-varying conditional expectations and investments are linear functions of factors, we calculate asymptotic joint moments of the logarithm of investor's wealth and the factors. These formulas enable fast computation of a wide range of investment criteria. The results are illustrated by a numerical example that shows that the optimal portfolio rules are sensitive to the specification of the investment criterion.
