    Interesting…I imagined investors playing the risk trade vs. risk averse would reflect in negative correlations b/w US and ASIA. Although I haven’t rev’d all your correlations, do you have any thoughts?

      Dear Stanley, you may want to sign up on Cranberger.com my site related to analysis of ETPs.

      It seems correlation between most markets are increasing, hence making diversification based on allocation to different markets less effective.

      It may however be more meaning full to calculate the conditional correlations before concluding.
