R/NetSelectivity.R

#' Net selectivity of the return distribution
#'
#' Net selectivity is the remaining selectivity after deducting the amount of return
#' require to justify not being fully diversified
#'
#' If net selectivity is negative the portfolio manager has not justified the loss of
#' diversification
#'
#' \deqn{Net selectivity = \alpha - d}{Net selectivity = Selectity - diversification}
#'
#' where \eqn{\alpha} is the selectivity and \eqn{d} is the diversification
#'
#' @aliases NetSelectivity
#' @param Ra an xts, vector, matrix, data frame, timeSeries or zoo object of
#' asset returns
#' @param Rb return vector of the benchmark asset
#' @param Rf risk free rate, in same period as your returns
#' @param \dots any other passthru parameters
