Apply statistical methods to financial data including descriptive statistics, covariance estimation, regression, hypothesis testing, and resampling. Use when the user asks about return distributions, correlation between assets, building a covariance matrix, running a CAPM regression, testing whether alpha is significant, checking if returns are normal, or estimating confidence intervals. Also trigger when users mention 'volatility', 'how correlated are these', 'fat tails', 'skewness', 'R-squared', 'beta of a fund', 'bootstrap a Sharpe ratio', 'shrinkage estimator', 'Ledoit-Wolf', or ask why their optimizer produces unstable weights.
