re: Uncorrelated ETFs - any suggestions that aren't bonds/commodities?

The tough part about this is that you’re going to be looking at 10-20 year correlations in an effort to avoid high inflation that was 40 years ago - it’s apples to oranges.

For some alternative ETFs, it's not even 10 years. I found one ETF that has the explicit purpose of providing uncorrelated returns but even then, the data only goes back 3 years. It's looking good so far but 3 years is hardly any time to conclude that it's working.



I've found some low correlation consumer staples that are uncorrelated but the drawdowns are still significant. The data for them goes back to 1994 which again, is still not representative of a high inflation environment.

I'll look at some data I can find tomorrow on our internal database.
