universal.cover: Universal portfolio selection algorithm from Cover

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References

Description

Implement the universal portfolio selection algortihm defined by Cover directly, i.e. with exponential complexity in the number of stocks considered.

Usage

1

Arguments

x

Time series of relative prices

n

Split any dimension in n, the algorithm will evaluate O(n^(m-1)) CRP, with m the number of stocks in x

Details

Straightforward implementation of Cover's algorithm, exponential behavior restrict this to small number of stocks.

Value

Return the time series of portfolio wealths.
