What to Watch
Unusual right now
Recent correlation (+22%) is 3.0σ from the long-run average of +95% — pair is behaving differently than usual.
Holds across regimes
Correlation is similar when markets rise (-4%) and fall (-3%) — reliable in both directions.
Flaky
Correlation swings widely across time windows — careful using this as a point estimate.
Time Series
Time-Shifted Correlation
See how correlation changes when one series is offset in time. A taller bar at a non-zero shift means the two move together better when one leads the other — that's a potential lead/lag signal.
