Risk-appetite discriminated investors' portfolio optimization using regime-switching models: Comparative analysis between sharia-compliant and non-sharia-compliant stocks

This study examines the portfolio wealth maximization (PWM) of risk-appetite discriminated (RAD) investors through technical analysis using regime-switching (RS) and non-RS models. The sample consists of 314 companies listed on Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), whereby 124 companies are Sharia-complian...
