assets-lpm: Computation of Lower Partial Moments of Asset Sets

In fAssets: Rmetrics - Analysing and Modelling Financial Assets

Computation of Lower Partial Moments of Asset Sets

Description

Computes lower partial moments from a time series of assets.

Usage

assetsLPM(x, tau, a, ...)
assetsSLPM(x, tau, a, ...)

Arguments

x	any rectangular time series object which can be converted by the function as.matrix() into a matrix object, e.g. like an object of class timeSeries, data.frame, or mts.
tau	the target return.
a	the value of the moment.
...	optional arguments to be passed.

Value

returns a list with two entries named mu and Sigma. The first denotes the vector of lower partial moments, and the second the co-LPM matrix. Note, that the output of this function can be used as data input for the portfolio functions to compute the LPM efficient frontier.
