Q: I’m looking for a way to assess the correlation of certain holdings to determine whether it makes sense to consolidate positions.
How would you think about this? Are there any free tools to pull correlations? What kind of correlation figure should one look for when assessing whether two holdings are too correlated to provide diversification value?
Just as one example, I’m looking at VVL and VUN. But please keep your answer focused on the general questions above.
Thanks very much.
