To determine which one of the two entities, such as Wells or USCF is a better fit for your portfolio, analyzing a few basic fundamental indicators is a good first step.

Correlation Between Wells and USCF Gold Strategy

In general, Fund analysis is a method for investors and traders to make individual buying and selling decisions. Mutual Fund correlation analysis is also essential because it can help investors realize that they may not be as diversified as they think. Risk management strategies are usually required to make sure all portfolios are properly aligned against their risk tolerance level. You can consider holding Wells Fargo together with similar or unrelated positions with a negative correlation. For example, you can also add USCF Gold to your portfolio. If USCF Gold is not perfectly correlated to Wells Fargo it will diversify some of the market risks out of the positively correlated stocks in your portfolio. However, the disadvantage of this sort of hedging is that it can potentially affect your investment returns throughout market cycles. When Wells Fargo, for example, performs excellent and delivers stable returns, the negatively correlated position you locked in as a hedge may drag your returns down.
