To gauge how strongly two variables are related to one another, correlation coefficients are used.
A statistical indicator of the strength of the association between the relative movements of two variables is the correlation coefficient. The values are in the -1.0 to 1.0 range. There was a measurement error in the correlation if the estimated value was larger than 1.0 or lower than -1.0. Perfect negative correlation is shown by a correlation of -1.0, and perfect positive correlation is shown by a correlation of 1.0. A correlation of 0.0 indicates that there is no linear link between the two variables' movements. Finance and investing can benefit from the usage of correlation statistics.
