That only adds a few dozen items. There's only so many currencies and commods, bonds. Even if you include really illiquid stuff maybe you get 150 things.

> There's only so many currencies and commods, bonds

Currencies are traded in pairs. Bonds are numerous, if illiquid off the run. Not to mention the bursting menagerie of derivatives our species tends to.

Highly correlated. I mean you can add option surfaces, but to count each option as separate is a stretch.
