Pav"],"abstract":"We describe a procedure to perform approximate inference on the achieved signal-noise ratio of the Markowitz Portfolio under Gaussian i.i.d. returns. The procedure relies on a statistic similar to the Sharpe Ratio Information Criterion. Testing indicates the procedure is somewhat conservative, but otherwise works well for reasonable values of sample and asset universe sizes. We adapt the procedure to deal with generalizations of the portfolio optimization problem.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.06171v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2005.06171v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"inference-on-achieved-signal-noise-ratio","repo_url":"https://github.com/shabbychef/snrinf","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
