This paper considers a dynamic asset allocation problem when the asset return is predictable in a continuous-time financial market. By using the separation principle, the dynamic portfolio optimization problem with predictable asset return is decomposed into two separate problems: a parameter inference problem and an optimization problem. The analytic expressions of the optimal portfolio strategy and the efficient frontier are derived by using the Lagrange duality approach and the dynamic programming approach. The result shows that both the estimate errors of the predictable variable and the time-varying investment opportunity caused by the predicative variable will lead to substantial impacts on the optimal strategy and the efficient frontier.
