Analyze rebalancing needs for a portfolio:
1. Current vs. Target Allocation:
- Current weights by asset class
- Target weights
- Deviation (absolute and relative)
2. Drift Analysis:
- Positions outside tolerance bands
- Time since last rebalance
- Drift drivers (performance vs. flows)
3. Rebalancing Options:
- Full rebalance to targets
- Threshold-based partial rebalance
- Tax-aware rebalancing
4. Trade List:
- Buys required (asset class, amount)
- Sells required (asset class, amount)
- Net cash flow
5. Cost Analysis:
- Transaction costs (commissions, spreads)
- Market impact estimate
- Tax implications of sells
6. Implementation Considerations:
- Timing (market conditions)
- Order type recommendations
- Phased execution plan (if large)
7. Post-Rebalance Projections:
- New allocation
- Expected risk/return change
- Factor exposure change
Output: Rebalancing trade list with cost-benefit analysis.
