I would look at momentum indicators and oscillators as technical methods
of finding leading indicators. Or, you might run a bunch of econometric
data through a neural net if you're a fundamentalist. Correlation with
bond prices or bond futures prices isn't likely to tell you anything you
don't already know. BTW, is it GE? :-)
