[[INTRODUCTION]]

Amidst the infinite expanse of the cosmos, lie the mysterious entities of Neptune and Uranus, two celestial voyagers that capture the imagination with their distant, solitary orbits. These ice giants have long remained enigmatic, their positions hidden from the gaze of human eyes, akin to that one elusive stock tip everyone seems to be searching for. Yet, little did we anticipate that their celestial whims might hold a key to unlocking the mysteries of financial markets. If only we had known earlier, we might have called it astroeconomics!

This research seeks to unravel the celestial puzzle that has left us scratching our heads—yes, even celestial bodies can keep us stargazing at the financial markets. Why did the stock market investor bring a ladder to the trade floor? Because the market seemed to be reaching for the stars, influenced by the gravitational pull of the distant ice giants!

The intersection of astronomy and finance might prompt a few raised eyebrows, but as we delved deeper into the data, an unexpected correlation emerged, shining brighter than a supernova: the orbital distance between Neptune and Uranus seems to wield a peculiar sway over the stock price of ICICI Bank (IBN). It's almost as if the universe is whispering stock tips to the keen ears of astronomers!

We embarked on our cosmic crusade armed with data gleaned from Astropy and LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv), navigating through the vastness of celestial and financial information in search of patterns and relationships, much like the ancient mariners navigating with the stars. It's all in the stars—quite literally!

As we unveil the celestial dance that seems to choreograph the movements of IBN's stock price, one wonders if the market analysts have been quietly keeping telescopes handy in their offices, hunting for investment guidance in the celestial ballet. After all, who wouldn't want to know if there's a "stellar" opportunity waiting to be discovered in the stock market?

Our findings unveil a stellar correlation coefficient of 0.8367129, shining as brightly as a star in the night sky, and a statistically significant p-value of less than 0.01 for the period spanning from 2002 to 2023. The celestial spheres and financial charts have indeed aligned, as if Uranus and Neptune are conspiring to reveal the secrets of stock market fluctuations. It's almost as if the stock market has been gazing at the stars for inspiration!

Intriguingly, our study unveils a cosmic narrative intertwined with the ebbs and flows of financial markets, establishing a connection that transcends the conventional boundaries of economic analysis. As we navigate the celestial and fiscal domains, we aim to bring to light a rather unusual dad joke—why did the stockbroker invest in Neptune and Uranus? Because they seemed to have a celestial return on investment, marked by the cryptic dance that manifests itself in the earthly realm of stocks!

So, fasten your seatbelts, fellow researchers, as we embark on a celestial odyssey intertwined with IBN's stock journey, offering an enticing blend of astronomy and finance. After all, when it comes to uncovering celestial connections in earthly affairs, there's no harm in looking up at the stars and saying, "Beam me up, profits!"

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]

The concept of celestial bodies influencing earthly affairs has captured the imagination of many, yet the specific connection between Neptune's distance from Uranus and the stock price of ICICI Bank (IBN) has largely remained unexplored. In "The Planetary Economics," Smith et al. proposed the idea that distant planets may exert subtle yet significant impacts on financial markets, challenging traditional economic theories with their celestial influence. However, little did they know that the distant dance of the ice giants could lead to stock market reverberations as quixotic as their own orbits.

As we tumbled down the celestial rabbit hole with our eyes fixed on the stock market figures, we came across a study by Jones and Doe titled "Celestial Stock Alignment," which hinted at the possibility of a cosmic relationship shaping financial trends. It's almost as if the stock market is on a galactic roller coaster, with Neptune and Uranus playing the role of mischievous celestial ride operators, determining the twists and turns of stock prices.

In addition to these serious studies, the literature also offers a departure from the mundane with real, non-fiction books like "Astrological Investments: A Celestial Guide to Financial Success" and "The Money Comet: Riding the Financial Waves of the Universe" by renowned astro-economists, Dr. Gamma Rays and Dr. Luna Tickler. Their work insists that the celestial bodies, including Neptune and Uranus, subtly influence the movement of global financial markets, sowing the seeds of economic upheaval and prosperity through their gravitational whims—surely an astronomical perspective that has not been fully appreciated.

On a more imaginative note, let us not forget the fictitious yet seemingly plausible works in literature such as "Cosmic Cash: The Financial Echoes of Planetary Orbits" and "The Banker's Guide to Stargazing" by the enigmatic pseudonymous author, P. L. Anetary. These titles hint at a world where the stock market is a celestial spectacle, driven by the mysterious cosmic interactions emanating from the distant reaches of the solar system. If only the stock market reports came with horoscopes, we might have been forewarned about Neptune's astral antics.

While our foray into the literature provides intriguing insights, the influence of the internet can't be underestimated, especially in the realm of meme culture. Memes like "Neptune and Uranus Align: Stock Market in Retrograde" and "When Uranus is in the Eighth House, Buy IBN Stock" have surreptitiously hinted at the celestial connections, albeit in a delightfully irreverent manner. These celestial memes are a testament to the whimsical ways in which the online community has embraced the ethereal interplay between astronomical phenomena and financial machinations, offering cosmic humor that is, quite literally, out of this world.

In summary, the interdisciplinary journey into the literature reveals a mixed bag of serious academic discourse, speculative astro-finance books, and the humorous whimsy of online memes, each adding its own flavor to the celestial cocktail of Neptune, Uranus, and IBN's stock price. As we venture forth to untangle the cosmic secrets behind economic fluctuations, we do so with a twinkle in our eyes and a hearty laugh, knowing that even the celestial dance has a place in the whimsical world of finance.

[[METHODOLOGY]]

In our pursuit of unraveling the celestial-economic enigma, our methodology hovered between the realms of orbital mechanics and market trend analysis, much like Uranus and Neptune themselves seemingly hover on the edge of our solar system. To begin, we gathered data on the orbital distances between Neptune and Uranus from Astropy, employing sophisticated algorithms to calculate the ever-fluctuating cosmic measurements. We had to make sure our data was as precise as possible, after all, we didn't want to miscalculate a celestial stock split!

Simultaneously, we obtained historical stock pricing information for ICICI Bank (IBN) from LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv), meticulously scanning through years of market data to capture the nuanced financial nuances interwoven with the celestial dance. It was akin to surfing the cosmic waves of financial fluctuations—neither for the faint-hearted nor the financially astray!

With our celestial and financial datasets in hand, we commenced the astroeconomic interplay, performing rigorous statistical analyses akin to navigating through a nebulous cloud to unearth the elusive relationships. We employed a combination of time series analysis and regression models to assess the correlation between the orbital distances of the ice giants and the stock prices of IBN. The process felt like discovering a celestial treasure map leading to the stock market pot of gold at the end of the cosmic rainbow!

Furthermore, as we delved into the depths of our data, we couldn't resist reveling in a bit of coding conjuring, unleashing the powers of Python to perform intricate calculations and visualizations. We were quite literally building our own celestial financial telescope—only this one peered into the cosmic correlations between Neptune, Uranus, and IBN's stock performance. Talk about astronomy meets economy—in code!

In addition to our quantitative analyses, we also delved into qualitative explorations, seeking insights from financial experts, astrologers, and perhaps a few amateur stargazers to gauge their interpretations of our findings. It was an enthralling expedition indeed, engaging in conversations that blurred the boundaries between the celestial and the monetary, with the occasional stellar joke to interject. What do you call a stock market guru who's also an astronomer? A hedge astronomer!

Through this multidimensional approach, we sought to shed light on the perplexing relationships between distant celestial bodies and the earthly domain of stock prices, endeavoring to untangle the enigmatic web that seemingly connects interstellar distances to financial profits. As we navigated the cosmos and the market, we couldn't help but wonder if we were the first to truly combine the celestial and the economical in such a manner. It was almost as if the universe itself was pointing us toward this celestial economics—perhaps it's time to invest in the stock market of the stars!

Neptune's Lonesome Position and ICICI's Stock Ambition: A Stellar Connection Mission

[[ABSTRACT]]
The cosmic dance of the planets has long fascinated mankind, and it seems that Neptune and Uranus may have a secret influence on earthly affairs, particularly in the world of finance. This study delves into the intriguing link between the distance separating Neptune and Uranus and the stock price of ICICI Bank (IBN), unraveling the celestial clues behind the fluctuations in IBN's market performance. With data extracted from Astropy and LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv), we embarked on this astronomical odyssey, aiming to shed light on the seemingly preposterous relationship between the celestial bodies and financial markets. Our findings reveal a striking correlation coefficient of 0.8367129 and a statistically significant p-value of less than 0.01 for the period spanning from 2002 to 2023, indicating a celestial connection that cannot be dismissed lightly.

As we charted the intricate interplay between the celestial bodies and the financial domain, we couldn't help but think of a dad joke: Why did the banker take a telescope to work? Because he wanted to see more interest in the stars!

Our study provides empirical evidence for a heretofore unexplored celestial-economic connection, offering a whimsical yet undeniable link between the vast expanse of space and the dynamic world of stock markets. So, the next time someone questions the influence of cosmic forces on economic trends, we can confidently say, "It's not just a heavenly matter—it's a Neptunian and Uranian factor!"

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The concept of celestial bodies influencing earthly affairs has captured the imagination of many, yet the specific connection between Neptune's distance from Uranus and the stock price of ICICI Bank (IBN) has largely remained unexplored. In "The Planetary Economics," Smith et al. proposed the idea that distant planets may exert subtle yet significant impacts on financial markets, challenging traditional economic theories with their celestial influence. However, little did they know that the distant dance of the ice giants could lead to stock market reverberations as quixotic as their own orbits.
As we tumbled down the celestial rabbit hole with our eyes fixed on the stock market figures, we came across a study by Jones and Doe titled "Celestial Stock Alignment," which hinted at the possibility of a cosmic relationship shaping financial trends. It's almost as if the stock market is on a galactic roller coaster, with Neptune and Uranus playing the role of mischievous celestial ride operators, determining the twists and turns of stock prices.
In addition to these serious studies, the literature also offers a departure from the mundane with real, non-fiction books like "Astrological Investments: A Celestial Guide to Financial Success" and "The Money Comet: Riding the Financial Waves of the Universe" by renowned astro-economists, Dr. Gamma Rays and Dr. Luna Tickler. Their work insists that the celestial bodies, including Neptune and Uranus, subtly influence the movement of global financial markets, sowing the seeds of economic upheaval and prosperity through their gravitational whims—surely an astronomical perspective that has not been fully appreciated.
On a more imaginative note, let us not forget the fictitious yet seemingly plausible works in literature such as "Cosmic Cash: The Financial Echoes of Planetary Orbits" and "The Banker's Guide to Stargazing" by the enigmatic pseudonymous author, P. L. Anetary. These titles hint at a world where the stock market is a celestial spectacle, driven by the mysterious cosmic interactions emanating from the distant reaches of the solar system. If only the stock market reports came with horoscopes, we might have been forewarned about Neptune's astral antics.
While our foray into the literature provides intriguing insights, the influence of the internet can't be underestimated, especially in the realm of meme culture. Memes like "Neptune and Uranus Align: Stock Market in Retrograde" and "When Uranus is in the Eighth House, Buy IBN Stock" have surreptitiously hinted at the celestial connections, albeit in a delightfully irreverent manner. These celestial memes are a testament to the whimsical ways in which the online community has embraced the ethereal interplay between astronomical phenomena and financial machinations, offering cosmic humor that is, quite literally, out of this world.
In summary, the interdisciplinary journey into the literature reveals a mixed bag of serious academic discourse, speculative astro-finance books, and the humorous whimsy of online memes, each adding its own flavor to the celestial cocktail of Neptune, Uranus, and IBN's stock price. As we venture forth to untangle the cosmic secrets behind economic fluctuations, we do so with a twinkle in our eyes and a hearty laugh, knowing that even the celestial dance has a place in the whimsical world of finance.

[[DISCUSSION]]

Our study offers compelling evidence that the distance between Neptune and Uranus is linked to the stock price of ICICI Bank (IBN). The correlation coefficient of 0.8367129 and the statistically significant p-value of less than 0.01 affirm the celestial-economic connection. This finding aligns with the proposals of Smith et al., who suggested celestial bodies' subtle yet significant impact on financial markets. It seems Neptune and Uranus aren't just sitting around, they're busy making stock prices dance to the rhythm of the cosmos!

In a similar vein to Jones and Doe's "Celestial Stock Alignment," our study contributes further support to the notion of a celestial relationship shaping financial trends. It's as if Neptune and Uranus are the unseen conductors orchestrating the movements of stock prices, unseen but profoundly influential. The relationship is as perplexing as it is intriguing—much like trying to calculate the gravitational pull of Uranus on IBN's stock price!

Moreover, as we immerse ourselves in the whimsical world of the celestial and financial, we can't help but be reminded of the meme culture surrounding celestial phenomena and the stock market. This study, while grounded in empirical data and statistical analysis, adds a cosmic twist to the otherwise serious world of economic research. After all, who says stellar economic insights can't also be an astronomical comedy of errors?

Considering our results in the context of the literature, it becomes evident that the financial world, much like the cosmos, is full of surprises and mysteries waiting to be unraveled. Our findings boldly declare that, in the vast tapestry of economic influences, Neptune and Uranus have secured their celestial places, influencing the stock market in ways we never imagined. It's like a celestial ballet that, once uncovered, reminds us that the universe always has a few more tricks up its sleeve!

While it may seem that the alignment of Neptune and Uranus and the stock price of IBN heralds a new era of astrological investing, we must also remember the importance of critical analysis and prudent decision-making. The celestial dance may offer tantalizing clues, but it's up to us, the earthly economists, to interpret them wisely and not get too starry-eyed about the prospects. As they say, "Don't invest in the stars blindly; remember, even the best astrologers can sometimes misread the celestial signals!"

In essence, our study sheds light on a hitherto unexplored frontier, showcasing that the celestial and financial are not as separate as we once thought. Perhaps it's time to challenge our conventional understanding of financial markets and embrace the quirky asterisms that may hold the key to predicting the unpredictable. After all, in the cosmic symphony of celestial influences, there may just be a few chords that resonate with the stock market, creating a celestial-economic melody that's as enigmatic as it is captivating.

[[INTRDUCTION]]
Amidst the infinite expanse of the cosmos, lie the mysterious entities of Neptune and Uranus, two celestial voyagers that capture the imagination with their distant, solitary orbits. These ice giants have long remained enigmatic, their positions hidden from the gaze of human eyes, akin to that one elusive stock tip everyone seems to be searching for. Yet, little did we anticipate that their celestial whims might hold a key to unlocking the mysteries of financial markets. If only we had known earlier, we might have called it astroeconomics!
This research seeks to unravel the celestial puzzle that has left us scratching our heads—yes, even celestial bodies can keep us stargazing at the financial markets. Why did the stock market investor bring a ladder to the trade floor? Because the market seemed to be reaching for the stars, influenced by the gravitational pull of the distant ice giants!
The intersection of astronomy and finance might prompt a few raised eyebrows, but as we delved deeper into the data, an unexpected correlation emerged, shining brighter than a supernova: the orbital distance between Neptune and Uranus seems to wield a peculiar sway over the stock price of ICICI Bank (IBN). It's almost as if the universe is whispering stock tips to the keen ears of astronomers!
We embarked on our cosmic crusade armed with data gleaned from Astropy and LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv), navigating through the vastness of celestial and financial information in search of patterns and relationships, much like the ancient mariners navigating with the stars.

See what else correlates with ICICI Bank's stock price (IBN)

Correlation r = 0.8367129 (Pearson correlation coefficient)
Correlation is a measure of how much the variables move together. If it is 0.99, when one goes up the other goes up. If it is 0.02, the connection is very weak or non-existent. If it is -0.99, then when one goes up the other goes down. If it is 1.00, you probably messed up your correlation function.

r2 = 0.7000884 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 70% of the change in the one variable (i.e., ICICI Bank's stock price (IBN)) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., The distance between Neptune and Uranus) over the 22 years from 2002 through 2023.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 1.2E-6. 0.0000012168616713451053000000
The p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme. More specifically the p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme if we had only tested one pair of variables one time.

But I am a p-villain. I absolutely did not test only one pair of variables one time. I correlated hundreds of millions of pairs of variables. I threw boatloads of data into an industrial-sized blender to find this correlation.

Who is going to stop me? p-value reporting doesn't require me to report how many calculations I had to go through in order to find a low p-value!
On average, you will find a correaltion as strong as 0.84 in 0.00012% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 821,786 random variables You don't actually need 821 thousand variables to find a correlation like this one. I don't have that many variables in my database. You can also correlate variables that are not independent. I do this a lot.

p-value calculations are useful for understanding the probability of a result happening by chance. They are most useful when used to highlight the risk of a fluke outcome. For example, if you calculate a p-value of 0.30, the risk that the result is a fluke is high. It is good to know that! But there are lots of ways to get a p-value of less than 0.01, as evidenced by this project.

In this particular case, the values are so extreme as to be meaningless. That's why no one reports p-values with specificity after they drop below 0.01.

Just to be clear: I'm being completely transparent about the calculations. There is no math trickery. This is just how statistics shakes out when you calculate hundreds of millions of random correlations.
with the same 21 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 21 because we have two variables measured over a period of 22 years. It's just the number of years minus ( the number of variables minus one ), which in this case simplifies to the number of years minus one.
you would randomly expect to find a correlation as strong as this one.

[ 0.64, 0.93 ] 95% correlation confidence interval (using the Fisher z-transformation)
The confidence interval is an estimate the range of the value of the correlation coefficient, using the correlation itself as an input. The values are meant to be the low and high end of the correlation coefficient with 95% confidence.

This one is a bit more complciated than the other calculations, but I include it because many people have been pushing for confidence intervals instead of p-value calculations (for example: NEJM. However, if you are dredging data, you can reliably find yourself in the 5%. That's my goal!


All values for the years included above: If I were being very sneaky, I could trim years from the beginning or end of the datasets to increase the correlation on some pairs of variables. I don't do that because there are already plenty of correlations in my database without monkeying with the years.

Still, sometimes one of the variables has more years of data available than the other. This page only shows the overlapping years. To see all the years, click on "See what else correlates with..." link above.

Why this works

  1. Data dredging: I have 25,153 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 632,673,409 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
  2. Lack of causal connection: There is probably Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
    no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied.
  3. Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
    p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is.
  4. Y-axis doesn't start at zero: I truncated the Y-axes of the graph above. I also used a line graph, which makes the visual connection stand out more than it deserves. Nothing against line graphs. They are great at telling a story when you have linear data! But visually it is deceptive because the only data is at the points on the graph, not the lines on the graph. In between each point, the data could have been doing anything. Like going for a random walk by itself!
    Mathematically what I showed is true, but it is intentionally misleading. Below is the same chart but with both Y-axes starting at zero.

Remember to only give me one step per response and confirm I have done it before proceeding."


# These modules make it easier to perform the calculation

# We'll define a function that we can call to return the correlation calculations
def calculate_correlation(array1, array2):

    # Calculate Pearson correlation coefficient and p-value
    correlation, p_value = stats.pearsonr(array1, array2)

    # Calculate R-squared as the square of the correlation coefficient
    r_squared = correlation**2

    return correlation, r_squared, p_value

# These are the arrays for the variables shown on this page, but you can modify them to be any two sets of numbers

Reuseable content

You may re-use the images on this page for any purpose, even commercial purposes, without asking for permission. The only requirement is that you attribute Tyler Vigen. Attribution can take many different forms. If you leave the "tylervigen.com" link in the image, that satisfies it just fine. If you remove it and move it to a footnote, that's fine too. You can also just write "Charts courtesy of Tyler Vigen" at the bottom of an article.

You do not need to attribute "the spurious correlations website," and you don't even need to link here if you don't want to. I don't gain anything from pageviews. There are no ads on this site, there is nothing for sale, and I am not for hire.

For the record, I am just one person. Tyler Vigen, he/him/his. I do have degrees, but they should not go after my name unless you want to annoy my wife. If that is your goal, then go ahead and cite me as "Tyler Vigen, A.A. A.A.S. B.A. J.D." Otherwise it is just "Tyler Vigen."

When spoken, my last name is pronounced "vegan," like I don't eat meat.
