Table 4.7: Performance best strategy in excess of performance buy-and-hold. Panel A shows the mean return of the best strategy, selected by the mean return criterion after implementing 0, 0.10, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1% costs per trade, in excess of the mean return of the buy-and-hold benchmark for each data series listed in the first column. Panel B shows the Sharpe ratio of the best strategy, selected by the Sharpe ratio criterion after implementing 0, 0.10, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1% costs per trade, in excess of the Sharpe ratio of the buy-and-hold benchmark for each data series listed in the first column.
