This document presents a correlation coefficient table, also known as R-Squared, comparing the performance of various investment strategies and indexes from October 1993 to June 2011. The strategies include long/short equity, tactical equity, tactical fixed income, and benchmark indexes. Correlation coefficients range from 0 to 1, with 1 indicating perfect correlation and 0 no correlation. Most strategies show low correlation to major indexes like the S&P 500, suggesting they act independently from the broader market.

Description Of R-Squared
The coefficient of determination (R-Squared) serves as an indication of the “fit’ of the data points to the regression line. Regression models are used to predict one variable based on the observations of another variable. For our purposes, the independent variable is a market index
return (i.e. S&P 500) and the dependent variable is the performance of a fund or strategy. Visually, the monthly results of each are plotted on a scatter graph, each point representing an “x” value equal to the index return and a “y” value equal to the fund return for the same month.
A “least-squares” linear regression line is calculated as a “best-fit” to represent the data points.
An R-squared of 1.00 would indicate that each data point was located on the regression line; in other words, a perfect fit. An r-squared near zero would indicate that the regression line is essentially meaningless - date points appear random and do not strongly support the regression
line. A low r-squared is generally appealing when seeking an investment which acts independently of the market index.
Note: Starting date of data range is based off the inception of the CMG Managed HY Bond Program.
Barclays Aggregate Bond Index was formerly known as the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index. Barclays High Yield Credit Bond Index was formerly known as the Lehman Brothers High Yield Credit Bond Index

Description Of Correlation
Correlation, represented by the correlation coefficient (R), measures the extent of linear association of two variables, and ranges between -1 and +1. Perfect positive correlation (a correlation co-efficient of +1) implies that as one security moves, either up or down, the other security will
move in lockstep, in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation (correlation co-efficient of -1) means that if one security moves in either direction the security that is perfectly negatively correlated will move by an equal amount in the opposite direction. If the
correlation is 0, the movements of the securities is said to have no correlation. It is completely random. For example, if one security moves up or down there is as good a chance that the other will move either up or down, but the way in which they move is totally random. A
correlation between -0.50 and 0.50 signifies a weak relationship between a strategy and either its peers or the general markets. We believe incorporating non-correlating strategies into a portfolio is essential for diversification.
Note: Starting date of data range is based off the inception of the CMG Managed HY Bond Program.
