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 IShares TIPS moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if iShares TIPS Bond moves in either direction, the perfectly negatively correlated security will move in the opposite direction.

Investors also form their own opinion of IShares TIPS's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is IShares TIPS's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value.
