What to Watch
Unusual right now
Recent correlation (+52%) is 3.2σ from the long-run average of -89% — pair is behaving differently than usual.
Holds across regimes
Correlation is similar when markets rise (-13%) and fall (-9%) — reliable in both directions.
Regime-dependent
The correlation has flipped sign across time windows — not reliable as a standalone signal.
