What does the term "cointegrated" mean in this context? Is it the same thing as "correlated" or is it something different?

Rick, guessing he means this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cointegration. It's a term used in economics and finance.

Do you have the Economics Toolbox? I don't have it myself, but I expect there are functions in there that would help.

The Cyclist is correct. The Econometrics Toolbox has two functions that test for cointegration:
- The Johansen cointegration test: jcitest
- The Engle-Granger cointegration test: egcitest
For more information:
HTH.
Best,
Rick
