*REMEMBER* Correlations don’t exist the same way people think they do.

For example, when economic growth expectations are volatile, stocks and bonds will be negatively correlated because if growth slows, it will cause both stock prices and interest rates to decline. In an environments where inflation expectations are volatile stocks and bonds will be positively correlated because interest rates will go up with higher inflation which is detrimental to both bonds and stocks.

 

Return always wants its risk payment.

NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE. Only for entertainment.
