Machine learning portfolios with equal risk contributions: Evidence from the Brazilian market
Archive ouverte : Article de revue
International audience. We investigate the use of machine learning (ML) to forecast stock returns in the Brazilian market using a rich proprietary dataset. While ML portfolios can easily outperform the local market, the performance of long-short strategies using ML is hampered by the high volatility of the short portfolios. We show that an Equal Risk Contribution (ERC) approach significantly improves risk-adjusted returns. We further develop an ERC approach that combines multiple long-short strategies obtained with ML models, equalizing risk contributions across ML models, which outperforms, on a risk-adjusted basis, all individual ML long-short strategies, as well as alternative combinations of ML strategies.
