Abstract

Portfolio turnpikes state that, as the investment horizon increases, optimal portfolios for generic utilities converge to those of isoelastic utilities. This paper proves three kinds of turnpikes. In a general semimartingale setting, the abstract turnpike states that optimal final payo ffs and portfolios converge under their myopic probabilities. In diffusion models with several assets and a single state variable, the classic turnpike demonstrates that optimal portfolios converge under the physical probability; meanwhile the explicit turnpike identifies the limit of fi nite-horizon optimal portfolios as a long-run myopic portfolio de fined in terms of the solution of an ergodic HJB equation.
