As discussed in Section 8.3, the Markowitz model uses the variance of the portfolio as the measure of risk. However, variance includes deviations both below and above the mean return. Semivariance includes only deviations below the mean and is considered by many to be a better measure of risk.
(a)
Develop a model that minimizes semivariance for the Hauck Financial data given in the file HauckData with a required return of 10%.
Assume
that the five planning scenarios in the Hauck Financial Services model are equally likely to occur. Hint: Modify model (8.10)–(8.19). Define a variable ds for each scenario and let
ds ≥ R − Rs
with
ds ≥ 0.
Then make the objective function:
