For a convex domain DD bounded by the hypersurface D\partial D in a space of constant curvature we give sharp bounds on the width RrR-r of a spherical shell with radii RR and rr that can enclose D\partial D, provided that normal curvatures of D\partial D are pinched by two positive constants. Furthermore, in the …

A simple example shows that losing all money is compatible with a very high Sharpe ratio (as computed after losing all money). However, the only way that the Sharpe ratio can be high while losing money is that there is a period in which all or almost all money is lost. This note explores the best achievable Sharpe and …

When trading incurs proportional costs, leverage can scale an asset's return only up to a maximum multiple, which is sensitive to its volatility and liquidity. In a model with one safe and one risky asset, with constant investment opportunities and proportional costs, we find strategies that maximize long term returns …
