What to Watch
Drifting from pattern
Recent correlation (+71%) is running 1.1σ away from the long-run average of +15%.
10Y-2Y Yield Spread moves ~12 weeks before Industrial Production
Watch 10Y-2Y Yield Spread for an early read on Industrial Production.
Tighter in drawdowns
Pair moves more tightly when both fall (+49%) than when both rise (-15%) — typical risk-off behaviour.
Regime-dependent
The correlation has flipped sign across time windows — not reliable as a standalone signal.
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.
