While a set of covariance matrices corresponding to different populations are unlikely to be exactly equal they can still exhibit a high degree of similarity. For example, some pairs of variables may be positively correlated across most…
The salient properties of large empirical covariance and correlation matrices are studied for three datasets of size 54, 55 and 330. The covariance is defined as a simple cross product of the returns, with weights that decay logarithmically…
