An inequality involving the Kullback-Leibler and chi-square divergences is used to generate new universal portfolios for investment. The stationary vector of an objective function is determined for the purpose of deciding the next-day portfolio given the current-day portfolio and the current-day price relative vector. The two-parameter portfolio is studied empirically by running the portfolio on selected stock-price data sets from the local stock exchange. It is demonstrated that the wealth of the investor can be increased by using the proposed universal portfolio.

The f -divergence of Csiszar is defined for a non-negative convex function on the positive axis. A pseudo f -divergence can be defined for a convex function not satisfying the usual requirements. A rational function where both the numerator and the denominator are non-integer polynomials will be used to generate universal portfolios. Five stock-price data sets from the local stock exchange are selected for the empirical study. Empirical results are obtained by running the generated portfolios on these data sets. The empirical results demonstrate that it is possible for the investors to increase their wealth by using the portfolios in investment.

In this research, four proposed finite order universal portfolios were used to study Malaysia’s stock market comprehensively and the constant rebalanced portfolio (CRP) was used as a benchmark for comparison. The empirical performance of the four universal portfolio strategies was analysed experimentally concerning 95 stocks from different categories in Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange (KLSE) from 1 January 2000 to 31 December 2015. Combinations of three stocks data from the selected 95 stocks are used for study for short-term (1-year duration), middle-term (4-years and 8-years durations) and long-term (12-years and 16-years durations). The empirical results showed that the performances of the proposed universal strategies are outperform CRP in 1 year and 4 years durations, but did poorly in 8-years, 12-years and 16-years durations. Therefore, these four UP strategies are empirically considered to be good investment strategies in the short-term.
