Pair Analysis: SKHX / MU
- Roll Z-Score (1h): 2.42 (MU is statistically rich relative to SKHX)
- Correlation: 0.73
- Half-Life: 29h
- Hedge Ratio: 0.743
Remark:
This setup is a classic mean-reversion play based on the 1h Z-score of 2.42, which indicates MU is currently trading at a significant premium relative to SKHX. However, caution is warranted: MU sentiment is strongly bullish following a Q3 earnings beat and blowout guidance, with structural demand locked in via long-term contracts. Shorting MU into this momentum, despite the statistical richness, carries elevated risk. The 1h Z-score is ~1.3h old; verify current price action to ensure the spread hasn't already begun to compress.
