What does low correlation mean in investing?
Low correlation means holdings don't all move the same way. When one drops, another may hold or rise - lowering overall stress.
How StockIT helps you practice this
Pair defensive Utilities/Staples with hotter IT/Energy. When Panic hits growth names, defensive holdings often hurt less - you feel low correlation.
In-game tip: “Low Correlation Wins” — Mix assets that don't move together - when one drops, others might rise.
