Abstract
- The article presents commentary from Jessica A. Wachter about a paper written by Yacine Ait-Sahalia and Michael W. Brandt entitled (A&B) "Variable Selection for Portfolio Choice," which appeared in the August, 2001 issue of the "Journal of Finance." In that paper A&B employed conditional moments of return to select an optimal portfolio. The author of the current paper acknowledges the validity of their work for single-period investments, but raises questions about its suitability for investments that extend over multiple periods.
