New framework evaluates forecast reliability using financial metrics

A new research paper introduces a framework for evaluating forecast reliability using financial risk-adjusted performance measures. The study applies this to U.S. macroeconomic forecasting, comparing econometric benchmarks, machine learning models, and a foundation model against the Survey of Professional Forecasters. Findings indicate that while professional forecasters are hard to outperform on a risk-adjusted basis due to their contextual judgment, certain machine learning methods show promise for specific targets.

    Quantifying the Risk-Return Tradeoff in Forecasting

    Average forecast accuracy is not the same as forecast reliability. I treat forecast loss differentials relative to a benchmark as a return series. I then evaluate these returns using risk-adjusted performance measures from finance, including the Sharpe ratio, Sortino ratio, Omega…
