As another month ended, we computed the correlations of the global ETFs and ETNs that trade in the U.S. during Q4 2009. We track these ETFs live here.
Correlation is crucial for proper diversification. You do not want highly correlated stocks, either positively or negatively.
The chart below is color-coded. Red and green indicate high correlations. Bold face indicate lack of correlation (good).
