One of the main challenges in the financial market is to simulate prices keeping the correlation structure among numerous assets. Principal Component Analysis emerges as solution to the latter problem. Also, given the uncertainty present in commodities markets, an investor wants to protect his/her assets from potential losses, so as an alternative, the optimization of various risk measures, such as Value-at-risk, Conditional Value-at-risk and Omega Ratio, are important financial tools. Additionally, the backtest is widely used to validate and analyze the performance of the proposed methodology. In this dissertation, we will work with a portfolio of oil commodities. We will put together different techniques and propose a new methodology that consists in the (potentially) decrease the dimension of the proposed portfolio. The following step is to simulate the prices of the assets in the portfolio and then optimize the allocation of the portfolio of oil commodities. Finally, we will use backtest techniques in order to validate our method.
