2014: The Sharp Ratio: Applying a Nobel Prize-Winning Concept to Income Property and Stocks

In this episode, Manny Kim from Giza Capital joins the show to discuss the Sharp Ratio and its application to income property. The Sharp Ratio, developed by William F. Sharp, measures the reward-to-variability ratio of an investment and is widely used in quantitative finance. It compares the excess return of an asset class to the standard deviation of that return, providing a single number to assess investment performance. This ratio allows for apples-to-apples comparisons between different asset classes, including real estate and stocks. Real estate tends to have lower volatility than stocks due to its lower liquidity, making it a potentially attractive investment. However, it is important to consider the assumptions and limitations of the Sharp Ratio, such as the stability of variance and the distribution of returns. By calculating the Sharp Ratio, investors can evaluate risk-adjusted returns and make informed investment decisions.
