//+ This macro shows in detail the use of the quadratic programming package quadp .
// Running this macro :
//     .x portfolio.C+
// or  gSystem->Load("libQuadp"); .L portFolio.C+; portfolio()
//
// Let's first review what we exactly mean by "quadratic programming" :
//
// We want to minimize the following objective function :
//
//   c^T x + ( 1/2 ) x^T Q x    wrt. the vector x
//
//   c is a vector and Q a symmetric positive definite matrix
//
// You might wonder what is so special about this objective which is quadratic in
// the unknowns, that can not be done by Minuit/Fumili . Well, we have in addition
// the following boundary conditions on x:
//
//          A x =  b
//  clo <=  C x <= cup
//  xlo <=    x <= xup  ,  where A and C are arbitray matrices and the rest are vectors
//
// Not all these constraints have to be defined . Our example will only use xlo, A and b
// Still, this could be handled by a general non-linear minimizer like Minuit by introducing
// so-called "slack" variables . However, quadp is tailored to objective functions not more
// complex than being quadratic . This allows usage of solving techniques which are even
// stable for problems involving for instance 500 variables, 100 inequality conditions
// and 50 equality conditions .
//
// Enough said about quadratic programming, let's return to our example .
// Suppose, after a long day of doing physics, you have a look at your investments and
// realize that an early retirement is not possible, given the returns of your stocks .
// So what now ? ROOT to the rescue ......
//
// In 1990 Harry Markowitz was awarded the Noble prize for economics : " his work provided new tools
// for weighing the risks and rewards of different investments and for valuing corporate stocks and bonds" .
// In plain English, he developed the tools to balance greed and fear, we want the maximum return 
// with the minimum amount of risk. Our stock portfolio should be at the "Efficient Frontier",
// see http://www.riskglossary.com/articles/efficient_frontier.htm .
// To quantify better the risk we are willing to take, we define a utility function U(x) . It describes
// as a function of our total assets x, our "satisfaction" . A common choice is 1-exp(-k*x) (the reason for
// the exponent will be clear later)  . The parameter k is the risk-aversion factor . For small values of k
// the satisfaction is small for small values of x; by increasing x the satisfaction can still be increased
// significantly . For large values of k, U(x) increases rapidly to 1, there is no increase in satisfaction
// for additional dollars earned .
//
// In summary : small k ==> risk-loving investor
//              large k ==> risk-averse investor
//
// Suppose we have for nrStocks the historical daily returns r = closing_price(n) - closing_price(n-1) .
// Define a vector x of length of nrStocks, which contains the fraction of our money invested in
// each stock . We can calculate the average daily return z of our portfolio and its variance using
// the portfolio covariance Covar :
//
//  z = r^T x   and var = x^T Covar x
//
// Assuming that the daily returns have a Normal distribution, N(x), so will z with mean r^T x
// and variance x^T Covar x
//
// The expected value of the utility function is : E(u(x)) = Int (1-exp(-k*x) N(x) dx
//                                                         = 1-exp(-k (r^T x - 0.5 k x^T Covar x) )
// 
// Its value is maximized by maximizing  r^T x -0.5 k x^T Covar x
// under the condition sum (x_i) = 1, meaning we want all our money invested and
// x_i >= 0 , we can not "short" a stock
//  
// For 10 stocks we got the historical daily data for Sep-2000 to Jun-2004:
//
// GE   : General Electric Co
// SUNW : Sun Microsystems Inc
// QCOM : Qualcomm Inc
// BRCM : Broadcom Corp
// TYC  : Tyco International Ltd
// IBM  : International Business Machines Corp
// AMAT : Applied Materials Inc
// C    : Citigroup Inc
// PFE  : Pfizer Inc
// HD   : Home Depot Inc
//
// We calculate the optimal portfolio for 2.0 and 10.0 .
//
// Food for thought :
// - We assumed that the stock returns have a Normal distribution . Check this assumption by 
//   histogramming the stock returns !
// - We used for the expected return in the objective function, the flat average over a time
//   period . Investment firms will put significant resources in improving the return predicton .
// - If you want to trade significant number of shares, several other considerations have
//   to be taken into account :
//    +  If you are going to buy, you will drive the price up (so-called "slippage") .
//       This can be taken into account by adding terms to the objective
//       (Google for "slippage optimization")
//    +  FTC regulations might have to be added to the inequality constraints 
// - Investment firms do not want to be exposed to the "market" as defined by a broad
//   index like the S&P and "hedge" this exposure away . A perfect hedge this can be added
//    as an equality constrain, otherwise add an inequality constrain .
