US Wind Power Generation vs US Imports
US Wind Power Generation and US Imports correlate at r = +0.44 over 42 years (1983–2024), p = 0.0036. With the time trend removed, r = -0.78. Direction flips without the trend.
Verdict: Direction flips without the trend. The raw correlation is 0.44, but once each series' time trend is removed it becomes -0.78. The year-to-year movements run the opposite way to the long-run trends, so the headline number is misleading.
