| Tiivistelmä: | This paper makes the choice btw. mutual funds realistic and rigorous by incorporating (i) unconventional non-expected utility theories implying four desirable properties (4DPs) of utility functions, and (ii) the fourth-order stochastic dominance (4SD). Kimball's (Econometrica 58, (1990) diminishing prudence is shown to need 4SD. A new weighting incorporates 4DPs into various criteria including the Sharpe ratio. This paper uses 1.281 mutual funds rated with 1-5 stars by Morningstar and proposes a new cumulative 4SD measure with superiour properties for statistical inference. An appendix describes a new maximum entropy (ME) bootstrap for dependent time series. |
