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

This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1.

Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Ballard Power Systems moves in either direction, the perfectly negatively correlated security will move in the opposite direction. If the correlation is 0, the equities are not correlated; they are entirely random. A correlation greater than 0.8 is generally described as strong, whereas a correlation less than 0.5 is generally considered weak.

Correlation analysis and pair trading evaluation for Ballard Power can also be used as hedging techniques within a particular sector or industry or even over random equities to generate a better risk-adjusted return on your portfolios.
