In the winter (like now), they are the same as Halifax, NS and as noted above are 1 hour ahead of NYC... BUT. in the spring and summer (after the spring forward time change) the DR is the same as NYC. Until the fall back time change in the Fall when they once again are the same as Halifax, NS and one hour earlier than NYC. Etc., etc., etc.
The Sortino ratio, named after Frank A. Sortino, measures the risk-adjusted return of an individual asset or a portfolio, as do the Sharpe and Treynor ratios. However, it only concerns itself with returns that fall below a user-specific minimum or required rate of return (minimum accepted return, or MAR).
Sharpe ratio. Using the Sharpe ratio is one way to compare the relationship of risk and reward in following different investment strategies, such as emphasizing growth or value investments, or in holding different combinations of investments.he greater a portfolio's Sharpe ratio is, the better its risk-adjusted performance has been. A variation of the Sharpe ratio is the Sortino ratio, which removes the effects of upward price movements on standard deviation to measure only return against downward price volatility.
