It's Friday again, and both stocks and bonds are down since last week. But wait, aren't bonds supposed to protect you when stocks fall? Last week, @ian_s asked a very good question about the correlation between stocks and bonds. I attempted to answer it in my column in The Globe and Mail this week. In short, bonds may not be negatively correlated with stocks at the moment, but they can still reduce your risk, as illustrated by the parachuting good boi below. Feedback and more questions always welcome! Gift link here: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/abf033097f2aee7cc380b493716e784abcd3170694bf0ae4c6f2ccb5a67962f4/5GDXBAX3BFFXHNPK3EHHETZUK4

Really appreciate you digging into this, the correlation history and the AQR/Scotiabank context especially. Thanks for taking the question seriously.
