Talk:Sortino ratio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Instead of "Thus, the ratio is the actual rate of return in excess of the investor's rate of return, per unit of downside risk.", would it be more appropriate to say "Thus, the ratio is the actual rate of return in excess of the investor's targeted rate of return, per unit of downside risk."? - PH/070516

[edit] Previous Discussion Message

I removed to proposed deletion message as I object to the deletion of this article. I'm not sure whether or nor the sortino ratio counts as "original research". However, I work in finance and work through lots of documents regarding funds and other financial instruments. Many of these quote sharpe and sortino ratios. I found this article very useful for finding out what the Sortino ratio was, and believe this article should not be deleted as the Sortino Ratio is a very common term in investment banking and fund research.

[edit] More Previous Discussion Message

This message is partially incomprehensible, although the author appears to be trying to say that he wants a previous deletion request eliminated. While I concur with this position, it would be appropriate if someone were to clean this to proper English. If the meaning is, in fact, something else, I will respond to whatever he/she is really trying to say. --BMR 13:36, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
