It is well known that while daily price returns of financial markets are uncorrelated, their absolute Values ('volatility') are long-term correlated. Here we provide evidence that certain subsequences of the returns themselves also exhibit long-term memory. These subsequences consist of maxima (or minima) of returns in consecutive time windows of R clays. Our analysis shows that for both stocks and Currency exchange rates, long-term correlations are significant for R >= 4. We argue that this long-term memory which is similar to that observed in volatility Clustering sheds further insight on price dynamics that might be Used for risk estimation.
