Correlation:
Why Diversification Works!
Correlation is a statistical measure of the relationship
between two series of numbers representing data
Positively Correlated items tend to move in the same
direction
Negatively Correlated items tend to move in opposite
directions
Correlation Coefficient is a measure of the degree of
correlation between two series of numbers representing
data

Correlation Coefficients
Perfectly Positively Correlated describes two
positively correlated series having a correlation
coefficient of +1
Perfectly Negatively Correlated describes two
negatively correlated series having a correlation
coefficient of -1

Correlation:
Why Diversification Works!
Assets that are less than perfectly positively
correlated tend to offset each others movements,
thus reducing the overall risk in a portfolio

International Diversification
Advantages of International Diversification
Broader investment choices

Methods of
International Diversification
Foreign company stocks listed on U.S. stock
exchanges
Yankee Bonds
American Depository Shares (ADSs)
Mutual funds investing in foreign stocks
U.S. multinational companies (typically not considered
a true international investment for diversification
purposes)

Components of Risk

Can be eliminated through diversification
Examples: labor strikes, lawsuits

Interpreting Beta
Higher stock betas should result in higher expected returns
due to greater risk
If the market is expected to increase 10%, a stock with a
beta of 1.50 is expected to increase 15%
