/// market index. It measures how closely the target’s price changes are aligned with the fluctuations of
|
||
/// the index over a specific period of time, providing insights into the target’s susceptibility to market
|
||
/// movements.
|
||
/// A positive correlation indicates that the target tends to move in the same direction as the market index,
