At the same time, because of the traditional efficient market hypothesis cannot explain market anomalies, the portfolio theory is facing the challenge of irrational market movements. Then behavioral finance was introduced to tackle the problem. The Topic of modern portfolio theory and the optimization model of development are reviewed in this paper. The analytical models outline the development trend of related fields, pointing out the direction for future research.
