| Abstract: | The goal of this thesis is to examine diversification opportunities and relative investment performance of fine wine over several different periods. We found that fine wine indices have higher risk-adjusted returns than stocks in the most of ours periods and that cheaper fine wines performed substantially better than expensive ones. However, over the periods of financial crisis, fine wine had a strong correlation to major stock indices and lost a significant part of its value. Finally, since fine wine did not show any evidence of exposure to stock markets over the recent period, we concluded that fine wine can bring substantial diversification benefits, which we illustrated in the case of anti-cyclical and pro-cyclical portfolio. |
