AI explanation

As the number of breweries in the United States increases, there is a resulting uptick in demand for specialty beer flavors. This surge in demand for unique beer varieties leads to a domino effect of increased need for natural gas to power the brewing and bottling processes. As a major energy company, Cheniere Energy is perfectly positioned to supply this escalating demand for natural gas, causing their stock price to bubble up like a vigorously poured craft beer. It's a brew-tiful relationship that's hoppening in the stock market!

[[INTRODUCTION]]

The relationship between seemingly unrelated industries and their impact on financial markets has long been a subject of intrigue for economists and analysts alike. Our research takes a stab at unraveling the enigmatic connection between the number of breweries in the United States and the stock price of Cheniere Energy (LNG). While one may initially raise an eyebrow at the juxtaposition of craft beer with energy stocks, our analysis uncovers a surprising correlation that demands further examination. It's a brew-tiful mystery that begs for clarification – a perfect opportunity to tap into a refreshing blend of data analysis and market dynamics.

The craft beer industry has witnessed a fermentation frenzy over the past two decades, with microbreweries and brewpubs sprouting up like hops in the summertime. Meanwhile, Cheniere Energy's stock has surged and ebbed like waves on the sea, drawing the attention of investors and analysts seeking to discern the underlying forces at play. As we embark on this peculiar journey of financial exploration, we are reminded that in the realm of economics, nothing is too ale-f to scrutinize, and no correlation is too stout to investigate.

By sifting through mountains of data from the Brewers Association and LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv), we aim to pour over the numbers and extract the essence of this intriguing relationship. Our findings promise to shed light on a most unexpected convergence of industries, leaving us to ponder whether there's more to this correlation than meets the pint glass.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]



ChatGPT:
[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]

The connection between seemingly unrelated industries and their potential impact on financial markets has been a subject of scholarly inquiry for decades. Smith and Doe (2005) examined the spillover effects of the automobile industry on the steel market, Jones et al. (2010) investigated the correlation between avocado prices and luxury yacht sales, and Brown and White (2017) explored the relationship between the global smartphone market and the demand for avocado toast.

Moving beyond these conventional pairings, we venture into the uncharted territory of the association between the burgeoning craft beer scene in the United States and the stock performance of Cheniere Energy (LNG). Our investigation leads us to question traditional economic assumptions and embrace the whimsical dance of statistics and market anomalies.

The non-fiction literature surrounding market interconnections provides a solid foundation for our study. In "Fermenting Fortunes: The Economic Impact of Craft Breweries" by Brewer and Fermenter (2018), the authors delve into the economic implications of the craft beer renaissance and its ripple effects on local economies. This exploration of the microeconomic landscape sets the stage for our examination of how these dynamics may extend to influence broader financial markets.

Peterson and Hops (2019) in "Barley and Barrel: A Financial Tale" offer a comprehensive analysis of the financial aspects of the craft brewing industry, underlining the blend of entrepreneurship and market forces that shape the business of beer. Their insights nudge us towards contemplating the potential ramifications of this industry’s growth on larger financial entities like Cheniere Energy.

Turning to fictitious works that may offer an unconventional lens through which to view our investigation, we cannot overlook the influence of literature. In the realm of fiction, "The Brews of Wall Street" by Ale E. Gator presents a whimsical account of a stockbroker who becomes entangled in the world of craft breweries, concocting a frothy narrative that mirrors the unexpected link we are attempting to decipher.

Additionally, "Hoponomics: A Tale of Hops and Stocks" by Maltilda Hopsworth offers a fictional exploration of the intertwining paths of brewing and financial markets, hinting at a hidden world where stock indices are seasoned with the aroma of hops and barley.

On a more visual note, several television shows have captured the essence of market intrigue that parallels our own research interests. "Barrels and Bulls: Brewing Up Success," a finance drama set against the backdrop of a craft brewery, provides a fictional representation of the economic intricacies that may underlie our real-world correlation.

Likewise, "Hoppy Days: A Financial Odyssey," a lighthearted comedy series set in the bustling world of finance and craft beer, delivers a quirky portrayal of the interplay between these two seemingly unrelated domains. Although our research veers from the entertainment values of these fictions, the parallels cannot be ignored.

ChatGPT:

[[METHODOLOGY]]

To concoct our analytical brew, we first tapped into the datasets provided by the Brewers Association and LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv), taking care to ensure our sources were as fresh as a newly cracked open IPA. We amassed a comprehensive collection of data spanning from 2002 to 2022, mindful of the necessity to capture the full-bodied flavors of market trends and economic shifts.

In our quest to ferment meaningful analysis, we fermented--ahem, I mean, formulated--a rather hoppy concoction of statistical methods, blending together a potent mix of time series analysis, regression modeling, and correlation coefficients. Think of it as akin to crafting a unique beer recipe, but instead of hops and malt, we were combining variables and mathematical functions. We then allowed this statistical blend to ferment in the analytical 'brewery' of our software platforms until it reached statistical 'maturity' – much like a fine wine or, in our case, a well-aged ale.

To ensure the purity of our results, we conducted robustness checks and sensitivity analyses, akin to performing taste tests to discern the nuances of different beer batches. This rigorous quality control process ensured that our findings were as crisp and clear as a pilsner on a hot summer's day.

Finally, we subjected our findings to a battery of diagnostic tests, akin to checking the alcohol content and clarity of a freshly brewed beer, to ensure their reliability and validity. With all our analytical ingredients in place and our processes meticulously scrutinized, we were ready to serve up our findings to the thirsty minds of the academic and financial communities.

[[DISCUSSION]]

The robust correlation uncovered in our study, linking the proliferation of breweries in the United States with the stock price of Cheniere Energy (LNG), provides compelling evidence of an unexpected interconnectedness in the financial world. The striking correlation coefficient of 0.8220717 and the r-squared value of 0.6758019 leave little room for doubt about the potency of this relationship. These findings not only add to the growing body of research that highlights the impact of seemingly unrelated industries on financial markets but also prompt us to ponder the intriguing mechanisms at play.

Our results fall in line with the whimsical notion put forth by Ale E. Gator in "The Brews of Wall Street," where craft breweries and stock markets collide in a frothy narrative. The surprisingly robust correlation mirrors the happenings in this work of fiction, demonstrating that reality can often be just as frothy and unpredictable as a well-crafted beer.

The influence of TV shows such as "Hoppy Days: A Financial Odyssey" cannot be dismissed lightly either. Though the show takes a lighthearted approach to the bond between craft beer and finance, our findings validate the underlying premise that the brewing industry and stock markets are not as disconnected as one might think—an uncanny resemblance to the correlation unveiled in our study.

Furthermore, the correlation we revealed aligns with previous non-fiction research by Brewer and Fermenter (2018) in "Fermenting Fortunes" and Peterson and Hops (2019) in "Barley and Barrel." Our study extends their insights by presenting empirical evidence of the entwined dance between the craft beer industry and the stock performance of large energy companies, thus bringing a touch of pragmatism to their previously theoretical musings.

It is noteworthy that our data spanned a period of two decades, providing a comprehensive view of the relationship between the number of breweries in the United States and Cheniere Energy's stock price. This robust dataset allowed us to capture the ebbs and flows of these variables and reveal their unanticipated harmony, much like the smooth balance of flavors in a well-crafted brew.

As we consider the potential broader implications of this correlation, we are prompted to look beyond the surface-level humor and recognize the possible economic and investment implications. While our results leave us with a lingering sense of wonder akin to that experienced on a brewery tour, they also call for a deeper exploration of the underlying market dynamics at play, challenging us to approach the financial world with an open mind and a readiness to embrace the unexpected.

Correlation r = 0.8220717 (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 = 0.6758019 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 67.6% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Cheniere Energy's stock price (LNG)) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., The number of Breweries in the United States) over the 21 years from 2002 through 2022.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 4.8E-6. 0.0000048437885057774210000000
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 0.82 in 0.00048% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 206,450 random variables You don't actually need 206 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 20 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 20 because we have two variables measured over a period of 21 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.

[ 0.61, 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.
