The ability to find closely correlated positions to Canadian National could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace Canadian National when you sell it. If you don't do this, your portfolio allocation will be skewed against your target asset allocation.

The correlation of Canadian National is a statistical measure of how it moves in relation to other instruments. This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1. A perfect positive correlation (i.e., a correlation coefficient of +1) implies that as Canadian National moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Canadian National Railway moves in either direction, the perfectly negatively correlated security will move in the opposite direction.
