In Managing U.S. Stock Market Oil Price Risk Using Exchange-Traded Funds, published in the Fall 2017 issue of The Journal of Investing, Robert Patterson, Richard Haskell, and Ronald Mano use robust analytical scrutiny to shed light on this issue. They find positive correlations between oil prices and the S&P 500, as well as the majority of subsector ETFs. In the case of the energy subsector ETFs, these correlations are strong enough to suggest that they could be used to manage oil price risk.TOPICS: Security analysis and valuation, equity portfolio management, risk management %U https://pa.pm-research.com/content/iijpracapp/6/1/1.7.full.pdf
