cannot write my Bachelor Thesis as I do not have the necessary time and skills to do so. Therefore, I am glad that you are helping me. The topic of the thesis is Fine Arts as an Alternative Investment Opportunity.
This is a very rough structure I have thought about, but you can go ahead and change it if you have more adequate ideas. Please feel free to do so!
1Introduction to the Fine Arts Market
Literature Review (Where does it fit in today’s literature?)
Hypothesis
2Data Set (you can find Data on Reuters, Bloomberg or through other literature)
Methodology
-Longest time series of possession (then break down to smaller time series and compare to stocks)
-Different measures of goodness (goodness of fit)
-Risk-adjusted measures on return (Sharpe Ratios, Alpha, Beta, R-Squared, St. Deviation)
Apply Methodology to Data Set
Analyze Results
Comparison of xxx e.g. to stocks, years of possession, auction houses vs. gallerists
3Conclusion
Summary of findings
Answer hypothesis
Additional information from my supervisor:
-form portfolio ex ante not post (ex ante: before the event)
-important that it takes place when i formed the portfolio, i.e. so currently and do not apply to future
-Always use longest time series of possession
-first take the longest time series and then break it down to smaller time periods and compare it to stocks
-different measures of goodness (goodness of fit; how close are the observation results compared to the hypothesis?)
-check risk so look at sharp ratios (measure for calculating risk-adjusted return) or so on
—-risk adjusted measures (alpha, beta, r squared, st. dev., sharpe ratio)
I would be glad to receive some updates, especially in the beginning of the writing process to make sure my supervisor agrees to the steps taken by you.
Thank you so much for your help and kindest regards!
