This stopping time is defined as the first moment, if it occurs, where the investor's cumulative wealth, at this point, can be safely reinvested in a simple bank account in order to meet his financial objective at the end of the investment horizon. %U http://www.ccsenet.org/journal/index.php/ijsp/article/view/24061
