US Agriculture Value Added vs US Infant Mortality
US Agriculture Value Added and US Infant Mortality correlate at r = +0.58 over 25 years (1997–2021), p = 0.0022. With the time trend removed, r = -0.38. Direction flips without the trend.
Verdict: Direction flips without the trend. The raw correlation is 0.58, but once each series' time trend is removed it becomes -0.38. The year-to-year movements run the opposite way to the long-run trends, so the headline number is misleading.
