Nick, thanks for your reply!
I am trying to implement a momentum investment strategy. I.e. I need to rank stocks according to their cumulated performance over a previous period (this information is stored in my matrices) and then take the top X% in order to classify in which stocks I will invest in the subsequent period (hence I want the name of the asset in order to tell Stata which returns to cumulate for the investment).
My idea was to realize this through usage of matrices. However I do not know if there exists a better approach to solving this. Do you (or does anyone else) have some input for me?
Thanks in advance,
Daniel
