Abstract
The Minimum Variance portfolio is subject to varying degrees of stability and robustness. We, therefore, propose a theoretical measure of its stability relative to a Marchenko–Pastur derived random correlation matrix. We demonstrate its practical use on the S&P 400, the S&P 500, the S&P 600 and the Russell 1000. Using historic market data from 2002 to 2021, we perform an optimisation on the empirical correlation matrix eigenvalue distribution to determine the implied variance for the underlying data-generating process. Through monitoring its change over time , we provide a Stability Measure for the Minimum Variance portfolio and thereby help researchers measure changes to estimation risk and manage rebalancing regimes.
