# The investment universe consists of 22 international ETFs. A normalized cumulative total return index is created for each ETF (dividends 
# included), and the starting price during the formation period is set to $1 (price normalization). The selection of pairs is made after
# a 120 day formation period. Pair’s distance for all ETF pairs is calculated as the sum of squared deviations between two normalized 
# price series. The top 5 pairs with the smallest distance are used in the subsequent 20 day trading period. The strategy is monitored
# daily, and trade is opened when the divergence between the pairs exceeds 0.5x the historical standard deviation. Investors go long 
# on the undervalued ETF and short on the overvalued ETF. The trade is exited if a pair converges or after 20 days (if the pair does 
# not converge within the next 20 business days). Pairs are weighted equally, and the portfolio is rebalanced on a daily basis.
