Repo for the project: Construction of Optimal Portfolio Strategies

Abstract

One of common practices in financial industry to calculate correlation between different stock returns is to use daily closed prices. In this project, we propose new methods to compute correlation matrix that uses real stock data based on transaction level. We use both Brownian bridge and linear interpolation to interpolate prices of all stocks at any given specific time.
