The Pearson correlation coefficient is underrated.


- Speed: One number tells you if two variables move together (-1 to +1). No complex models needed.
- Sector diversification: Helps build truly diversified portfolios. If tech and semiconductors = 0.92 correlation, you're not actually diversified.
- Predictive power: Found 0.45 correlation between energy sector performance and oil prices. That's actionable insight for entry/exit timing.
