The ability to find closely correlated positions to CME could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace CME when you sell it. If you don't do this, your portfolio allocation will be skewed against your target asset allocation. So, investors can't just sell and buy back CME - that would be a violation of the tax code under the "wash sale" rule, and this is why you need to find a similar enough asset and use the proceeds from selling CME Group to buy it.

The correlation of CME is a statistical measure of how it moves in relation to other instruments. This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1. A perfect positive correlation (i.e., a correlation coefficient of +1) implies that as CME moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if CME Group 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 CME 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.

The market value of CME Group is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of CME that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of CME's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is CME's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because CME's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect CME's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.

Please note, there is a significant difference between CME's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if CME is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, CME's price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
