Hi,

This is not a purely S-plus question. I am trying to measure the association  
between two series. Historical correlation (as rescaled covariance) numbers  
are not satisfactory. Any idea how I can get numbers that are more stable (?),  
uses the probable existence  of non-linearity & heteroscedasticity in data ?  
I don't want to use anything like multivariate-GARCH at this point.

Thanks.
