INTRODUCTION
As the great philosopher Plato once said, "The beginning is the most important part of the work." With that in mind, we kick off this academic adventure into the fizz-worthy world of virtual information and financial frolics. The intersection of Google searches for "who is J.K. Rowling" and the financial fortunes of The Coca-Cola Company might seem as odd a combination as mixing Mentos and soda, yet we implore our esteemed readers to suspend their disbelief and embark on this journey with an open mind – and perhaps an open bottle of soft drink.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that the entrance of a new author into the literary world is often met with both curiosity and celebration. J.K. Rowling, the acclaimed author of the Harry Potter series, has captivated the imaginations of readers of all ages and walks of life. The widespread fascination with her life and works has been so palpable that, dare we say, it seems to exude an effervescent quality – much like the delightful carbonation in a fizzy beverage.
At the same time, The Coca-Cola Company, an enduring titan of the global beverage industry, has experienced its fair share of price fluctuations and market challenges. Theories and hypotheses on what drives its stock prices have been as numerous as bubbles in a freshly poured cola. Yet, amidst these financial musings and market analyses, one might not expect to find a peculiar rendezvous with the inquiries about a British author. It is precisely this unexpected and at first blush, perplexing relationship, that has provided the impetus for our scholarly sojourn.
In the paragraphs that follow, we will unravel the threads that tie together virtual searches for literary luminaries and the ebb and flow of stock prices. Through meticulously gathered data and rigorous statistical analysis, we seek to shed light on this quirky correlation and offer a fresh perspective that transcends the usual confines of economic research. So, buckle up and brace for a playful yet probing exploration into the interconnected, and at times, paradoxical world of pop culture fascination and market movements.

In the world of academic research, some studies by Smith and Jones have delved into the unexpected connections between consumer behavior and stock prices, providing foundational insights into the enigmatic interplay of popular culture and financial markets. Additionally, Doe's exploration of internet search trends and their impact on market sentiment has offered a thought-provoking perspective on the potential influence of virtual curiosity on investment decisions.
In a similar vein, non-fiction literature such as "Freakonomics" by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner has sparked contemplation on unconventional correlations, challenging traditional views of causality and shedding light on the unexpected intertwining of disparate domains. Likewise, "Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman has probed the intricacies of human decision-making, prompting reflection on the curious quirks that govern our choices and their potential reverberations in the economic sphere.
Amidst this backdrop of serious scholarly inquiry, the whimsical world of fiction offers its own assortment of literary contributions that seem tangentially related to our peculiar research endeavor. "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" by Mark Haddon and "The Da Vinci Code" by Dan Brown contain elements of mystery and intrigue, paralleling the curious conundrum we seek to unravel in our investigation. Furthermore, the enchanting allure of J.K. Rowling's magical realm in the Harry Potter series adds an aura of whimsy to our exploration, beckoning the reader to join us on this bewitching voyage of discovery.
As we venture further into the realm of unconventional information sources, it is worth noting that our pursuit of knowledge extended beyond traditional academic archives. In a lighthearted departure from convention, our research team embraced an unorthodox approach to literature review, perusing eclectic materials ranging from the backs of shampoo bottles to comedic sketches, reveling in the delightful absurdity that permeates everyday life.
Our divergent approach to the literature review reflects the playful spirit with which we have embarked upon this inquiry, inviting the reader to partake in our unconventional blend of academic rigor and lighthearted exploration. With the stage thus set, let us merrily journey forth into the delightful amalgamation of literary whimsy, financial intrigue, and, of course, fizzy fascination. Cheers to the unexpected connections that await us!

[[METHODOLOGY]]
To unravel the mysterious connection between Google searches for "who is J.K. Rowling" and the fluctuating stock prices of The Coca-Cola Company, we embarked on a data-driven odyssey that was equally exhilarating and, dare we say, carbonated with curiosity. Our methodology was as meticulously crafted as a limited-edition, collectible glass bottle - providing a refreshing approach to our offbeat investigation.
Data Collection:
Our intrepid journey began with the collection of data from Google Trends, quenching our thirst for insights into the search behavior patterns of inquisitive netizens. We examined the frequency of searches related to "who is J.K. Rowling" across different regions, timelines, and search platforms - like a vigilant soda connoisseur sifting through various flavors to find the perfect fizz. To complement this, we channeled the powers of LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv) to obtain a comprehensive dataset of daily stock prices for The Coca-Cola Company from 2004 to 2023. This allowed us to capture the fluctuations in the company's financial performance with the precision of an artisanal soda maker carefully measuring ingredients.
Data Preprocessing:
With the sheer amount of data at our disposal, we applied a methodological sieve to filter out any carbonation-induced noise and discrepancies. This involved cleaning, harmonizing, and aligning the datasets, ensuring that the flavors of search trends and stock prices blended harmoniously. We also calibrated our approach to factor in any potential external influences that could pop up and cause interference, like unexpected burps in a carbonated beverage.
Statistical Analysis:
Armed with a treasure trove of meticulously curated data, we deployed an assortment of statistical tools that could make even the most seasoned quantitative researchers foam at the mouth with excitement. Our primary analysis entailed correlation coefficients and regression models - akin to crafting the perfect soda formula with just the right balance of ingredients. We probed the data to uncover not just whether a relationship existed but also the magnitude and significance of this unlikely connection.
Time-Series Analysis:
Recognizing the dynamic nature of both search trends and stock prices, we leveraged time-series analysis to capture the temporal patterns and fluctuations. This allowed us to track the rise and fall of interest in J.K. Rowling and the concomitant ripples in Coca-Cola's stock prices, akin to observing the satisfying effervescence of a freshly poured soft drink.
Control Variables:
To ensure the robustness of our findings, we factored in several control variables - such as overall market trends, macroeconomic indicators, and perhaps even the phase of the moon (albeit with a tinge of irony). This fortification was crucial in isolating the specific influence of J.K. Rowling's search popularity on Coca-Cola's market dynamics, akin to separating the distinct flavor profiles in a mixed beverage.
Sensitivity Analysis:
Lastly, we subjected our findings to a rigorous sensitivity analysis, akin to subjecting a soda to various conditions to assess its resilience. This allowed us to evaluate the stability and reliability of our results across different scenarios, ensuring that our conclusions were as robust as the carbonation in a well-sealed bottle.
In essence, our methodology was as meticulous and robust as concocting the perfect soda formula, with an added hint of playful unpredictability. It encompassed a blend of quantitative rigor and exploratory zeal that mirrored the effervescent fusion of pop culture curiosity and market dynamics we sought to unravel.

The correlation coefficient of 0.9256536 indicated a robust relationship between these seemingly unrelated variables. Furthermore, the r-squared value of 0.8568346 indicated that approximately 86% of the variability in Coca-Cola's stock prices could be explained by the fluctuations in the search interest for J.K.

This finding was particularly striking, considering the seemingly disparate nature of the two variables under investigation.

[[INTRDUCTION]]
INTRODUCTION
As the great philosopher Plato once said, "The beginning is the most important part of the work." With that in mind, we kick off this academic adventure into the fizz-worthy world of virtual information and financial frolics. The intersection of Google searches for "who is J.K. Rowling" and the financial fortunes of The Coca-Cola Company might seem as odd a combination as mixing Mentos and soda, yet we implore our esteemed readers to suspend their disbelief and embark on this journey with an open mind – and perhaps an open bottle of soft drink.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that the entrance of a new author into the literary world is often met with both curiosity and celebration. J.K. Rowling, the acclaimed author of the Harry Potter series, has captivated the imaginations of readers of all ages and walks of life. The widespread fascination with her life and works has been so palpable that, dare we say, it seems to exude an effervescent quality – much like the delightful carbonation in a fizzy beverage.
At the same time, The Coca-Cola Company, an enduring titan of the global beverage industry, has experienced its fair share of price fluctuations and market challenges. Theories and hypotheses on what drives its stock prices have been as numerous as bubbles in a freshly poured cola. Yet, amidst these financial musings and market analyses, one might not expect to find a peculiar rendezvous with the inquiries about a British author. It is precisely this unexpected and at first blush, perplexing relationship, that has provided the impetus for our scholarly sojourn.
In the paragraphs that follow, we will unravel the threads that tie together virtual searches for literary luminaries and the ebb and flow of stock prices. Through meticulously gathered data and rigorous statistical analysis, we seek to shed light on this quirky correlation and offer a fresh perspective that transcends the usual confines of economic research. So, buckle up and brace for a playful yet probing exploration into the interconnected, and at times, paradoxical world of pop culture fascination and market movements.

[[CONCLUSION]]
In conclusion, our investigation into the correlation between "who is J.K. Rowling" Google searches and The Coca-Cola Company's stock prices has unearthed a result as surprising as finding a fizzy drink in the desert – a remarkably strong positive correlation. This robust relationship, akin to the reliable effervescence of carbonated beverages, has defied conventional expectations and sent ripples through the realms of literary curiosity and financial fortunes.
While our findings may seem as unexpected as discovering a hidden prize under the cap of a soda bottle, they underscore the importance of exploring non-traditional factors in the world of market dynamics. Just as a perfectly balanced blend of ingredients creates the perfect cola, our research suggests that seemingly unrelated elements can blend together to influence stock prices in unforeseen ways.
With a correlation coefficient stronger than the carbonation of a freshly opened soda and a p-value more significant than the impact of a Mentos dropped into said soda, our results are as clear and effervescent as the message in a bottle. This unique connection between cultural curiosity and market movements may raise more eyebrows than the satisfying sound of a bottle cap popping, but it also encourages a reinvigorated perspective on the interplay between popular culture and economic phenomena.
Having quenched our thirst for knowledge in this peculiar paradigm, we emphatically assert that no further research is needed in this area. As we savor the unexpected delight of this uncommon correlation, we raise our glasses – whether filled with soda or any other beverage of one's preference – to the whimsical, often surprising nature of the economic world. Cheers to a refreshing blend of statistical intrigue and market merriment!

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 = 0.8568346 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 85.7% of the change in the one variable (i.e., The Coca-Cola Company's stock price (KO)) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Google searches for 'who is jk rowling') over the 20 years from 2004 through 2023.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 5.02E-9. 0.0000000050211719152423230000
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 0.93 in 5.02E-7% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 199,156,694 random variables You don't actually need 199 million 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 19 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 19 because we have two variables measured over a period of 20 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.
[ 0.82, 0.97 ] 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
- 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.
- 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. - 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.
Try it yourself
You can calculate the values on this page on your own! Try running the Python code to see the calculation results. Step 1: Download and install Python on your computer.Step 2: Open a plaintext editor like Notepad and paste the code below into it.
Step 3: Save the file as "calculate_correlation.py" in a place you will remember, like your desktop. Copy the file location to your clipboard. On Windows, you can right-click the file and click "Properties," and then copy what comes after "Location:" As an example, on my computer the location is "C:\Users\tyler\Desktop"
Step 4: Open a command line window. For example, by pressing start and typing "cmd" and them pressing enter.
Step 5: Install the required modules by typing "pip install numpy", then pressing enter, then typing "pip install scipy", then pressing enter.
Step 6: Navigate to the location where you saved the Python file by using the "cd" command. For example, I would type "cd C:\Users\tyler\Desktop" and push enter.
Step 7: Run the Python script by typing "python calculate_correlation.py"
If you run into any issues, I suggest asking ChatGPT to walk you through installing Python and running the code below on your system. Try this question:
"Walk me through installing Python on my computer to run a script that uses scipy and numpy. Go step-by-step and ask me to confirm before moving on. Start by asking me questions about my operating system so that you know how to proceed. Assume I want the simplest installation with the latest version of Python and that I do not currently have any of the necessary elements installed. Remember to only give me one step per response and confirm I have done it before proceeding."
