US Adolescent Birth Rate vs US Gross Savings
US Adolescent Birth Rate and US Gross Savings correlate at r = +0.50 over 55 years (1970–2024), p = 1.1e-4. With the time trend removed, r = -0.52. Direction flips without the trend.
Verdict: Direction flips without the trend. The raw correlation is 0.50, but once each series' time trend is removed it becomes -0.52. The year-to-year movements run the opposite way to the long-run trends, so the headline number is misleading.
