Definition of 'Recoupling'

Investopedia explains 'Recoupling'

Recoupling and decoupling revolve around the idea that there is a correlation between asset classes based on fundamental factors, like trade relationships when referring to economies. For a true decoupling to occur, there needs to be the removal or weakening of the fundamentals behind the relationship.
