Cost model

Rule-switch is the only cost event: if the agent's rule at t differs from t-1, the entire portfolio rebalances and pays the top tier of the cost model (25 bps). Same-rule days cost 0.

Tiered per-unit-weight turnover cost:

Turnover fractionCost (bps)
< 10%5
< 30%10
< 100%25

Mean rule switches per OOS cell: 35.7

Aggregate

  • Median uplift (gross): -0.254
  • Median uplift (net): -1.674
  • Net is 0% of gross
  • Bootstrap p(agent_net > EW) — min: 0.559, median: 0.739, max: 0.984

Pre-registered pass bar (restated for stage 7)

ADOPT requires ALL THREE:

  • OOS Sharpe > EW Sharpe + 0.10 (gross: -0.254, net: -1.674)
  • bootstrap p (agent > EW) < 0.05 (max p: 0.984)
  • OOS max drawdown < 0.30

Stop condition S3 (hypothesis doc)

Net uplift must be >= 50% of gross uplift. Got: gross -0.254, net -1.674. S3 triggered: True.
