摘要：
我们通过样本外幂效用函数的视角分析特征的联合预测信息。将权重与特征关联以构建最优投资组合会存在估计误差，我们通过最大化一个比效用函数凹度更高的样本内损失函数来缓解该误差。虽然没有单一特征能被所有投资者用于提升效用，但基于动量、规模和残差波动率构建的投资组合，其确定性等值对所有投资者而言均显著高于基准组合。特征的互补性带来了这些收益，例如动量可缓解其他特征固有的过拟合问题。最优投资组合的收益很大程度上不在传统因子的张成空间内。
英文摘要：
We analyze characteristics' joint predictive information through the lens of out-of-sample power utility functions. Linking weights to characteristics to form optimal portfolios suffers from estimation error which we mitigate by maximizing an in-sample loss function that is more concave than the utility function. While no single characteristic can be used to enhance utility by all investors, conditioning on momentum, size, and residual volatility produces portfolios with significantly higher certainty equivalents than benchmarks for all investors. Characteristic complementarities produce the benefits, for example momentum mitigates overfitting inherent in other characteristics. Optimal portfolios' returns lie largely outside the span of traditional factors.
