Transaction Costs in Trading Strategies

Medium Trading & Rebalancing Transaction Costs

Alyssa is a portfolio manager overseeing a diversified investment fund. She is looking to rebalance the fund's equity allocation after a recent strong performance in the tech sector. As she considers selling some of the tech stocks to allocate funds into underperforming sectors, she is particularly concerned about the transaction costs associated with these trades.
