Pair Trading with North American
One of the main advantages of trading using pair correlations is that every trade hedges away some risk. Because there are two separate transactions required, even if North American position performs unexpectedly, the other equity can make up some of the losses. Pair trading also minimizes risk from directional movements in the market. For example, if an entire industry or sector drops because of unexpected headlines, the short position in North American will appreciate offsetting losses from the drop in the long position's value.The ability to find closely correlated positions to North American could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace North American when you sell it. If you don't do this, your portfolio allocation will be skewed against your target asset allocation. So, investors can't just sell and buy back North American - that would be a violation of the tax code under the "wash sale" rule, and this is why you need to find a similar enough asset and use the proceeds from selling North American Construction to buy it.
The correlation of North American is a statistical measure of how it moves in relation to other instruments. This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1. A perfect positive correlation (i.e., a correlation coefficient of +1) implies that as North American moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if North American Const moves in either direction, the perfectly negatively correlated security will move in the opposite direction. If the correlation is 0, the equities are not correlated; they are entirely random. A correlation greater than 0.8 is generally described as strong, whereas a correlation less than 0.5 is generally considered weak.
