Rebalancing

Evaluate investment performance on a risk-adjusted basis using industry-standard ratios and capture analysis. Use when the user asks about Sharpe ratio, Sortino ratio, Information Ratio, Treynor ratio, Calmar ratio, Omega ratio, or upside/downside capture. Also trigger when users mention 'risk-adjusted returns', 'return per unit of risk', 'M-squared', 'is this fund worth the volatility', 'how to compare two managers', 'capture ratio', or ask which investment performed better after accounting for risk.

Generate clear, accurate performance reports for investment portfolios with benchmarks, attribution, and risk dashboards. Use when the user asks about portfolio performance reports, return summaries, benchmark comparison, risk dashboards, goal progress tracking, or GIPS-compliant reporting. Also trigger when users mention 'quarterly report', 'how did my portfolio do', 'time-weighted vs money-weighted return', 'annualized returns', 'net-of-fee performance', 'rolling Sharpe', or ask how to present investment results to clients.

Build diversified portfolios using correlation analysis, efficient frontier construction, and factor-based diversification. Use when the user asks about portfolio variance, correlation effects, the efficient frontier, minimum variance portfolios, diversification ratios, or factor diversification. Also trigger when users mention 'don't put all eggs in one basket', 'how many stocks do I need', 'correlation breakdown in a crisis', 'are my holdings really diversified', 'risk contributions', or ask why diversification fails during market crashes.

Compute and compare investment return metrics including TWR, MWR (dollar-weighted IRR on portfolio cash flows), CAGR, and annualized returns. Use when the user asks about portfolio performance calculation, comparing manager returns, linking sub-period returns, understanding why different return methods give different numbers, converting returns across time periods, or computing the IRR of an investor's own contributions and withdrawals. Also trigger when users mention 'how much did I make', 'annual return', 'compound growth', 'dollar-weighted vs time-weighted', 'what was my rate of return', 'geometric vs arithmetic mean', 'log returns', or ask about the effect of cash flows on reported returns. For project or loan IRR, NPV, and generic 'solve for the rate' problems, use time-value-of-money instead.

Analyze lending products including mortgages, HELOCs, and personal loans with amortization and comparison tools. Use when the user asks about mortgage comparison, fixed vs ARM rates, loan qualification, amortization schedules, extra payments, or buying points. Also trigger when users mention 'monthly payment calculation', '15-year vs 30-year mortgage', 'PMI', 'APR vs interest rate', 'HELOC', 'home equity', 'should I buy down the rate', 'biweekly payments', or ask how much house they can afford.

Design and operate reconciliation processes across portfolio management, custodian, and clearing systems. Use when building a daily position, cash, or transaction reconciliation process, investigating discrepancies between internal records and custodian records, diagnosing recurring break patterns from corporate actions or pricing differences, setting tolerance thresholds for position, cash, or market value matching, implementing three-way reconciliation, designing break investigation workflows with aging and escalation, normalizing multi-custodian feeds from Schwab, Fidelity, or Pershing, reconciling cost basis or accrued income, or preparing for examinations on books and records accuracy.
