The selection of stock portfolio and the measurement of
risk are of great significance in investments. Based on the entropy
model and the CVaR function, this paper proposes a new
multi-objective portfolio optimization model.
In addition, a combination of fuzzy set theory and particle swarm optimization
algorithm is employed to solve the model. By using the data of stocks included by
the Shenzhen Composite index, SME composite index, and SSE 180 Index, a
comparative empirical analysis is carried out. Five assessment metrics,
including but not limited to Sharpe Ratio, Mean Absolute Deviation Ratio,
Adjusted Skewness Sharpe Ratio and Farinelli and Tibiletti Ratio are used
to evaluate the performane of the model. The results show that the proposed
model has better performance in both utility and stability compared to other
existing models, namely, Mean-Variance-Skewness Model, Entropy-Entropy Model
and Entropy-Entropy-Skewness Model. The conclusion of this paper has made some
contribution to enrich the current knowledge of portfolio theory.
