Correlation

Correlation measures the degree and direction of the co-movement between two assets.

A positive correlation indicates that the two assets tend to move in a similar direction, whereas a negative correlation indicates that they tend to move in opposite directions. A correlation of zero indicates that the returns of the two assets are uncorrelated.
