[[INTRODUCTION]]
As the saying goes, "What's in a name?" Well, according to our research, quite a bit when it comes to the peculiar correlation between the popularity of the first name "Kodi" and the stock price of Extra Space Storage (EXR). This study delves into the intriguing intersection of nomenclature and economics, uncovering a connection that is as unexpected as it is entertaining.
The notion that a simple name could hold sway over the financial performance of a company might seem as far-fetched as a storage unit filled with dad jokes, yet our findings suggest otherwise. We've nicknamed this phenomenon the "Kodi Effect," and its impact on EXR stock has left us both bewildered and bemused. It's a pun-derful world, indeed.
When we began this study, our team couldn't help but wonder, "What's in a name and a ticker symbol?" Our curiosity led us to analyze data from the US Social Security Administration, tracing the fluctuations in the popularity of the name "Kodi" from 2005 to 2022. We then turned our attention to the stock market, where we gleaned EXR's price movements from LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv), hoping to unravel the whimsically intertwined tale of Kodi and EXR.
As we crunched the numbers and uncovered a correlation coefficient of 0.9582935 coupled with a p-value of less than 0.01, we couldn't help but smile at the statistical significance. It seems that the "Kodi Effect" is more than just a clever play on words; it's a statistical enigma that raises eyebrows almost as much as it raises stock prices.
So, what exactly does this mean for the world of finance and for parents pondering the perfect name for their offspring? Is the rise of Kodi a harbinger of bullish trends for EXR, or is it simply a case of serendipitous nomenclature? These questions keep us pondering the whims of the market and the witticisms of statistics with a wry grin – after all, every good paper needs a pun-damental twist.
Our study offers a humorous yet genuinely surprising exploration of the crossroads between nomenclature and market dynamics. By shedding light on this comical correlation, we hope to add a touch of whimsy to the world of economics and finance. It appears that in the realm of statistics, there's always a place for a good dad joke, especially when it comes to understanding market trends. In this study, we're proving that even in the world of statistics, laughter and learning can go hand in hand. Just remember, when it comes to market trends, laughter is the best medicine.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The literature is replete with scholarly investigations into the interconnection between nomenclature and financial market dynamics. Smith (2010) delves into the influence of personal names on consumer behavior, while Doe (2015) examines the potential impact of naming conventions on stock valuation. Jones (2018) contributes to this body of knowledge with an exploration of the sociocultural implications of popular given names.
Pivoting towards more relatable sources, the works of "Freakonomics" authors Levitt and Dubner (2005) and "Superforecasting: The Art and Science of Prediction" by Tetlock and Gardner (2015) offer insightful perspectives on the unexpected factors that influence economic and financial outcomes. These notable non-fiction works pave the way for a deeper understanding of the lighthearted yet substantial influence of nomenclature on market phenomena.
In the realm of fiction, "The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss (2007) and "The Wealth of Nations" by Adam Smith (1776) present contrasting yet thematically relevant narratives that blur the boundaries between naming traditions and economic forces. These disparate works serve as a reminder that the intersection of nomenclature and financial markets is a rich and multifaceted domain worthy of exploration.
As our study delves into the delightfully unconventional correlation between the popularity of the name "Kodi" and the stock performance of Extra Space Storage (EXR), we must acknowledge the diverse sources that have informed our inquiry. Amidst the serious literature and compelling narratives lies an unexpected muse for our exploration—the back of shampoo bottles. The ingredients may be unpronounceable, but the humor is just right for an academic paper that embraces the comical side of numbers.

To unravel the enigmatic link between the popularity of the first name "Kodi" and the stock price of Extra Space Storage (EXR), our research harnessed cutting-edge statistical methods, with a dash of levity, to ensure rigorous analysis with a side of amusement. Dad jokes included, of course.
We initiated our investigation by accessing data from the US Social Security Administration's extensive records of baby names, delving into the fascinating world of nomenclature from 2005 to 2022. This proved to be no walk in the park, but then again, neither is deciphering the nuanced ups and downs of stock prices. It was truly a "Kodi-named" adventure into the depths of naming trends, akin to finding a "Kodi" in a haystack.
As for the stock price data of Extra Space Storage (EXR), our team turned to LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv) for a treasure trove of market movements. We meticulously collected and scoured through EXR's historical stock prices, navigating the bullish and bearish terrain with the same spirit of curiosity that led to the invention of the dad joke. After all, it's always good to "stock up" on puns when parsing through stock prices.
The process of data collection was the foundation of our analysis, and let's just say it wasn't a "shoe-in." We encountered our fair share of challenges, much like a marathoner navigating through a field of dad jokes – one step forward, two steps quip-ward. Nonetheless, our commitment to thoroughness and statistical rigor ensured that our dataset was as comprehensive as it was comical. It's a fact: rigorous research doesn't have to be devoid of humor.
With a data set in hand that would make even the most serious economist chuckle, we applied a range of statistical techniques to untangle the "Kodi Effect." From correlation analysis to time series modeling, we left no statistical stone unturned, all with a twinkle in our eye and a pun on our lips. It turns out that unraveling the mysteries of market trends and nomenclature is much like crafting a perfect dad joke – it requires precision, timing, and a little bit of unexpected flair.
Our analysis assumed a comprehensive scope, accounting for potential confounding variables such as market trends, economic indicators, and even cultural shifts influencing the popularity of names. Just like a well-crafted pun, our statistical model aimed to capture the essence of the "Kodi Effect" while addressing any lurking statistical nuances. It's safe to say that our approach was as diligent as a dad joke aficionado perfecting their craft.
In the end, our methods blended a touch of whimsy with a robust statistical foundation to shed light on the captivating connection between a name and a stock price. Our data journey, much like a good pun, may have had its twists and turns, but the end result was a compelling analysis that tickled the funny bone as much as it teased the intellect.

Fig. 1 depicts the scatterplot illustrating the robust positive relationship between the frequency of the name "Kodi" and EXR's stock price. As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words, and in this case, it's worth at least a thousand chuckles - as long as you're open to a good pun.
The correlation coefficient of 0.9582935 signifies a remarkably strong relationship, almost as strong as the gravitational pull of an excellent pun. We can be fairly confident in this association, as evidenced by the r-squared value of 0.9183265, indicating that over 91% of the variation in EXR stock price can be explained by the popularity of the name "Kodi." It seems that Kodi's impact on the market is as undeniable as a dad joke's impact at a family dinner.
Furthermore, the p-value of less than 0.01 underscores the statistical significance of this finding. This p-value is lower than the number of puns in this paper, and that's saying something in a study that has us all tickled by an unexpected correlation.
These results not only emphasize the surprising connection between nomenclature and market dynamics but also emphasize the importance of keeping an open mind when exploring statistical relationships. It may seem like an odd pairing, but just as unexpected connections can be made between names and stocks, unexpected laughter can be found in a good dad joke.

Kodi's Name Knack and EXR: Exploring the Entertaining Econometrics
[[ABSTRACT]]
In this study, we endeavor to explore the perplexing yet surprisingly punderful connection between the popularity of the first name "Kodi" and the stock price of Extra Space Storage (EXR). By harnessing data from the US Social Security Administration and LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv), our research team conducted a comprehensive analysis spanning the years 2005 to 2022.
Unveiling a remarkable correlation coefficient of 0.9582935 and a p-value of less than 0.01, our findings suggest a notably strong relationship between the popularity of the name "Kodi" and the fluctuations in EXR stock price. As we delved deeper into this trend, we couldn't help but ask, "Is the influx of Kodi's influencing EXR or is EXR's performance simply attracting more Kodi's?"
Our results hint at the striking possibility that the rise and fall of the name "Kodi" might hold some sway over the market dynamics of EXR. This correlation, while surprising, is a reminder that in the world of statistics, unexpected relationships may emerge when least expected – and sometimes, a good dad joke accompanies them.
In conclusion, our study brings to light an eye-opening correlation between the popularity of a first name and a stock's performance, offering a refreshing twist on the usual market analysis. This research embraces the comical side of numbers, showcasing how even in the world of statistics, there's always room for a good pun. After all, understanding market trends doesn't have to be a storage.
[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The literature is replete with scholarly investigations into the interconnection between nomenclature and financial market dynamics. Smith (2010) delves into the influence of personal names on consumer behavior, while Doe (2015) examines the potential impact of naming conventions on stock valuation. Jones (2018) contributes to this body of knowledge with an exploration of the sociocultural implications of popular given names.
Pivoting towards more relatable sources, the works of "Freakonomics" authors Levitt and Dubner (2005) and "Superforecasting: The Art and Science of Prediction" by Tetlock and Gardner (2015) offer insightful perspectives on the unexpected factors that influence economic and financial outcomes. These notable non-fiction works pave the way for a deeper understanding of the lighthearted yet substantial influence of nomenclature on market phenomena.
In the realm of fiction, "The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss (2007) and "The Wealth of Nations" by Adam Smith (1776) present contrasting yet thematically relevant narratives that blur the boundaries between naming traditions and economic forces. These disparate works serve as a reminder that the intersection of nomenclature and financial markets is a rich and multifaceted domain worthy of exploration.
As our study delves into the delightfully unconventional correlation between the popularity of the name "Kodi" and the stock performance of Extra Space Storage (EXR), we must acknowledge the diverse sources that have informed our inquiry. Amidst the serious literature and compelling narratives lies an unexpected muse for our exploration—the back of shampoo bottles. The ingredients may be unpronounceable, but the humor is just right for an academic paper that embraces the comical side of numbers.

[[DISCUSSION]]
Our findings present a compelling case for the impact of the name "Kodi" on the stock price of Extra Space Storage (EXR). The remarkably high correlation coefficient of 0.9582935, along with a p-value of less than 0.01, underscores the statistical significance of this unexpected relationship. It seems that the rise and fall of the name "Kodi" may indeed hold some sway over the market dynamics of EXR. This correlation might just be the name of the game in stock market analysis. After all, as the saying goes, "Kodi's name knack might be knackering the stock price."
Our results align with prior research that has delved into the intriguing interplay between nomenclature and economic phenomena. Smith's (2010) exploration of personal names and consumer behavior provides a foundation for understanding the possible influence of a name like "Kodi" on market dynamics. Similarly, Doe's (2015) examination of naming conventions and stock valuation becomes all the more pertinent in light of our findings. As our study unearthed a substantial correlation, it appears that the influence of nomenclature on financial markets extends beyond what meets the initial eye. Just like a good dad joke, the impact may be surprising at first, but it ultimately leaves a lasting impression.
Even as we take this connection seriously, we cannot help but appreciate the unexpected sources that have informed our inquiry. The quirky influence of the back of shampoo bottles continues to remind us that in the universe of statistical analysis, there's always space for a good laugh. Our findings align with the lighthearted yet substantial perspective offered by Levitt and Dubner's "Freakonomics" and Tetlock and Gardner's "Superforecasting: The Art and Science of Prediction." It seems that in the realm of economic and financial outcomes, the unexpected factors are as diverse and delightful as the assortment of dad jokes at a family gathering.
The robust relationship between the popularity of the name "Kodi" and the stock price of EXR not only adds an entertaining twist to market analysis but also underscores the need for broader perspectives in understanding statistical relationships. Just as the unexpected connection between nomenclature and stock performance emerged in our study, unexpected laughter has found its place in the serious world of economic research. In the end, it appears that understanding market trends is not just about storage—it's about keeping an open mind to unexpected correlations and a good pun or two.

[[INTRDUCTION]]
As the saying goes, "What's in a name?" Well, according to our research, quite a bit when it comes to the peculiar correlation between the popularity of the first name "Kodi" and the stock price of Extra Space Storage (EXR). This study delves into the intriguing intersection of nomenclature and economics, uncovering a connection that is as unexpected as it is entertaining.
The notion that a simple name could hold sway over the financial performance of a company might seem as far-fetched as a storage unit filled with dad jokes, yet our findings suggest otherwise. We've nicknamed this phenomenon the "Kodi Effect," and its impact on EXR stock has left us both bewildered and bemused. It's a pun-derful world, indeed.
When we began this study, our team couldn't help but wonder, "What's in a name and a ticker symbol?" Our curiosity led us to analyze data from the US Social Security Administration, tracing the fluctuations in the popularity of the name "Kodi" from 2005 to 2022. We then turned our attention to the stock market, where we gleaned EXR's price movements from LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv), hoping to unravel the whimsically intertwined tale of Kodi and EXR.
As we crunched the numbers and uncovered a correlation coefficient of 0.9582935 coupled with a p-value of less than 0.01, we couldn't help but smile at the statistical significance. It seems that the "Kodi Effect" is more than just a clever play on words; it's a statistical enigma that raises eyebrows almost as much as it raises stock prices.
So, what exactly does this mean for the world of finance and for parents pondering the perfect name for their offspring? Is the rise of Kodi a harbinger of bullish trends for EXR, or is it simply a case of serendipitous nomenclature? These questions keep us pondering the whims of the market and the witticisms of statistics with a wry grin – after all, every good paper needs a pun-damental twist.
Our study offers a humorous yet genuinely surprising exploration of the crossroads between nomenclature and market dynamics. By shedding light on this comical correlation, we hope to add a touch of whimsy to the world of economics and finance. It appears that in the realm of statistics, there's always a place for a good dad joke, especially when it comes to understanding market trends. In this study, we're proving that even in the world of statistics, laughter and learning can go hand in hand. Just remember, when it comes to market trends, laughter is the best medicine.

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 = 0.9183265 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 91.8% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Extra Space Storage's stock price (EXR)) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Popularity of the first name Kodi) over the 18 years from 2005 through 2022.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 4.04E-10. 0.0000000004037625033335015600
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 0.96 in 4.04E-8% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 2,476,703,487 random variables You don't actually need 2 billion 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 17 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 17 because we have two variables measured over a period of 18 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.
[ 0.89, 0.98 ] 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.

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.

Download images for these variables:
- High resolution line chart
The image linked here is a Scalable Vector Graphic (SVG). It is the highest resolution that is possible to achieve. It scales up beyond the size of the observable universe without pixelating. You do not need to email me asking if I have a higher resolution image. I do not. The physical limitations of our universe prevent me from providing you with an image that is any higher resolution than this one.
If you insert it into a PowerPoint presentation (a tool well-known for managing things that are the scale of the universe), you can right-click > "Ungroup" or "Create Shape" and then edit the lines and text directly. You can also change the colors this way.
Alternatively you can use a tool like Inkscape. - High resolution line chart, optimized for mobile
