US Gross Savings vs US Inflation Rate

US Gross Savings and US Inflation Rate correlate at r = +0.60 over 55 years (1970–2024), p < 0.0001. With the time trend removed, r = +0.35. Holds up after detrending.

Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = < 0.0001) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = 0.35). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
