[[INTRODUCTION]]
The intricate world of financial markets has long been subject to extensive scrutiny and analysis, with researchers tirelessly seeking to identify the myriad factors that influence stock prices. From economic indicators to company performance metrics, the quest for understanding the volatile nature of stock prices has been a never-ending endeavor. However, amidst this sea of conventional variables, one might not expect to find a connection between the number of bartenders in Idaho and the stock price of Ford Motor Company (F). That's right – in this study, we take a whimsical and unconventional approach to unraveling the enigmatic relationship between these seemingly unrelated entities.
In the grand tradition of unexpected pairings – think peanut butter and jelly, or salt and caramel – the fusion of bartender figures and stock prices might initially strike one as rather incongruous. Yet, as we embark on this journey of analysis and exploration, our findings promise to surprise, amuse, and perhaps even shake up the conventional wisdom of stock price determinants. As we let the data flow like a perfectly crafted cocktail, we invite the reader to join us in pondering the unlikely interplay between mixology in Idaho and the rise and fall of F's stock price.
So, why delve into the world of bartenders and stock prices? Well, beyond the obvious potential for puns and comic relief, our study seeks to shed light on the unorthodox avenues through which market dynamics might be driven. While the notion of bartenders influencing a multinational automotive company's stock may sound like the setup for a joke, our data paints a compelling picture of a nontraditional force at play in the capricious dance of financial markets.
As we embark on this fanciful yet rigorous investigation, let us not forget the wise words of American poet and philosopher, Ralph Waldo Emerson: "Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." Without further ado, let's raise our glasses to a research journey filled with unexpected twists, statistical revelations, and, of course, a generous serving of good humor. Cheers to unraveling the bartenders-stock price connection – hold the olives, please!

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The connection between seemingly incongruous variables has long been a subject of fascination for researchers and analysts alike. From the classic work of Smith and Doe (2000) on the correlation between agricultural yields and astronaut satisfaction to the more recent study by Jones et al. (2015) examining the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the price of chewing gum, the allure of unexpected connections continues to permeate the scholarly landscape.
Turning to the world of finance, one would be remiss not to mention the seminal work of Johnson and Williams (2012) on the impact of weather patterns on stock market volatility. However, as we approach the enigmatic nexus of bartenders and stock prices, the literature takes a slightly more whimsical turn. In "Market Mixology: Unconventional Influences on Financial Dynamics," the authors delve into the unexplored territory of mixologists' impact on market trends, paving the way for our own endeavor to sip from the fountain of unconventional wisdom.
Venturing beyond the confines of traditional financial literature, we encounter the provocative insights put forth in "Pour, Sip, Influence: A Bartender's Guide to Market Mastery," a non-fictional account that purports to uncover the covert maneuvers of mixologists in shaping stock prices. Moreover, the fictitious but curiously titled novel, "The Bull and the Beer Stein: A Stock Market Mixology Mystery," invites readers to envisage a world where libations and market dynamics intertwine in a tangled web of intrigue.
As we navigate the uncharted territory of our research topic, it is crucial to acknowledge the breadth of sources that have informed our investigation. This includes, of course, the meticulous perusal of industry reports, economic analyses, and financial journals. However, in the spirit of unorthodox exploration, it would be remiss not to divulge the unconventional sources that have, in their own way, contributed to our understanding. From the back labels of craft beer bottles to the arcane whisperings of vintage cocktail shakers, the depth of our literature review knows no bounds.
In sum, our foray into the world of bartenders and stock prices stands as a testament to the boundless potential for unexpected connections in the vast tapestry of market influences. As we raise our intellectual glasses to toast this venture, let us embark on this journey with a sprig of curiosity, a splash of skepticism, and a twist of whimsy. Cheers to unraveling the bartenders-stock price connection – and may the ice in our statistical tumbler never melt!

[[METHODOLOGY]]
To embark on our whimsical yet methodologically sound investigation into the connection between the number of bartenders in Idaho and the stock price of Ford Motor Company (F), we employed a comprehensive and multifaceted approach. Our data collection and analysis involved a creative blend of statistical techniques, economic insights, and a healthy pinch of humor to keep the research spirits high.
First and foremost, we procured data on the number of bartenders in Idaho from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This involved sifting through an amalgamation of occupational employment surveys and state-specific data to extract the precise figures that would form the foundation of our analysis. The nuances of gathering this information were akin to carefully crafting a cocktail – requiring attention to detail and a steady hand to ensure accurate measurements.
Simultaneously, our team delved into the labyrinthine world of stock market data, sourcing Ford Motor Company's stock price information from LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv). We meticulously collected historical stock prices spanning the years 2003 to 2022, navigating through the peaks and troughs of market fluctuations with the tenacity of a seasoned explorer in uncharted territories.
With our data in hand, we employed advanced statistical methods that could stand the test of academic rigor while sprinkling in a dash of unconventional analysis. To assess the relationship between the number of bartenders in Idaho and Ford's stock price, we conducted a thorough time-series analysis, employing autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) models to capture the dynamics of both variables over time.
Furthermore, to quantify the strength and direction of the relationship, we calculated Pearson's correlation coefficient, which served as our measure of association between the bartender figures and stock prices. Additionally, a rigorous regression analysis was employed to control for potential confounding factors, ensuring that our findings were robust and reliable.
In line with the eccentric nature of our inquiry, we also engaged in qualitative analysis, drawing upon economic theories and market trends to contextualize our quantitative findings. This interplay of quantitative and qualitative methods allowed us to craft a narrative that not only presented statistical evidence but also painted a vivid picture of the unorthodox interplay between mixology in Idaho and the ebbs and flows of F's stock price.
Lastly, to imbue our investigation with a measure of lightheartedness, we conducted a semantic analysis of bartending-related puns and market euphemisms, seeking to infuse our findings with a dash of good humor. After all, what better way to toast to our research journey than by raising a glass to statistical revelations garnished with a touch of wit?
In summary, our methodology was a spirited concoction of diligent data collection, sophisticated statistical analyses, and a generous sprinkle of wit. With these tools at our disposal, we set out to uncover the unexpected connection between bartenders and stock prices, infusing our research with the perfect blend of statistical rigor and whimsy.

[[RESULTS]]
The correlation analysis between the number of bartenders in Idaho and Ford Motor Company's stock price (F) revealed a surprisingly robust relationship. Over the period from 2003 to 2022, our research team found a correlation coefficient of 0.7768514, indicating a strong positive association between these two seemingly unrelated variables. In addition, the proportion of variance in Ford's stock price explained by the number of bartenders, as indicated by the r-squared value of 0.6034981, further underscores the substantial impact of mixology on market dynamics.
The statistical significance of this association was confirmed with a p-value of less than 0.01, lending credence to the notion that the presence of bartenders in Idaho is, in fact, a notable driver of Ford Motor Company's stock price movements. It appears that while bartenders are busy mixing drinks, they are also stirring up stock market trends in an unpredictably potent concoction.
Furthermore, the scatterplot depicted in Figure 1 visually encapsulates the pronounced correlation between the variables. The scatterplot not only highlights the strong positive relationship but also serves as a vivid reminder that in the world of statistical analysis, even the most unexpected pairings can yield compelling results.
These findings provide a whimsical yet insightful perspective on the interconnectedness of diverse influences on stock market dynamics. While it may seem as though the notion of bartenders impacting stock prices belongs in the realm of fiction, our results strongly indicate otherwise. The bartenders of Idaho, with their shakers and stirrers in hand, appear to have an unforeseen role in shaping the trajectory of F's stock price.
In conclusion, our exploration into the bartenders-stock price connection not only showcases the dynamics of market influences but also invites a playful reconsideration of what may drive stock price movements. This study further emphasizes the significance of incorporating unconventional variables in financial market analyses, proving that sometimes, the most unexpected ingredients can make for the perfect stock market cocktail.

Pouring Over the Pour: Exploring the Bartenders-Stock Price Connection
[[ABSTRACT]]
This research delves into the intriguing relationship between the number of bartenders in Idaho and the stock price of Ford Motor Company (F). For this study, data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv) were meticulously analyzed for the period from 2003 to 2022. Surprisingly, a correlation coefficient of 0.7768514 and a significant p-value of less than 0.01 were found, revealing a strong and unexpected link between these seemingly disparate factors. Our findings provide a refreshing perspective on the complexities of market influences, suggesting that perhaps the key to understanding stock prices lies in the mixing and shaking skills of Idaho's bartenders. This study not only uncovers a novel avenue for stock price analysis but also demonstrates the potential impact of unconventional variables in financial markets.
[[INTRDUCTION]]
The intricate world of financial markets has long been subject to extensive scrutiny and analysis, with researchers tirelessly seeking to identify the myriad factors that influence stock prices. From economic indicators to company performance metrics, the quest for understanding the volatile nature of stock prices has been a never-ending endeavor. However, amidst this sea of conventional variables, one might not expect to find a connection between the number of bartenders in Idaho and the stock price of Ford Motor Company (F). That's right – in this study, we take a whimsical and unconventional approach to unraveling the enigmatic relationship between these seemingly unrelated entities.
In the grand tradition of unexpected pairings – think peanut butter and jelly, or salt and caramel – the fusion of bartender figures and stock prices might initially strike one as rather incongruous. Yet, as we embark on this journey of analysis and exploration, our findings promise to surprise, amuse, and perhaps even shake up the conventional wisdom of stock price determinants. As we let the data flow like a perfectly crafted cocktail, we invite the reader to join us in pondering the unlikely interplay between mixology in Idaho and the rise and fall of F's stock price.
So, why delve into the world of bartenders and stock prices? Well, beyond the obvious potential for puns and comic relief, our study seeks to shed light on the unorthodox avenues through which market dynamics might be driven. While the notion of bartenders influencing a multinational automotive company's stock may sound like the setup for a joke, our data paints a compelling picture of a nontraditional force at play in the capricious dance of financial markets.
As we embark on this fanciful yet rigorous investigation, let us not forget the wise words of American poet and philosopher, Ralph Waldo Emerson: "Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." Without further ado, let's raise our glasses to a research journey filled with unexpected twists, statistical revelations, and, of course, a generous serving of good humor. Cheers to unraveling the bartenders-stock price connection – hold the olives, please!

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 = 0.6034981 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 60.3% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Ford Motor Company's stock price (F)) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., The number of bartenders in Idaho) over the 20 years from 2003 through 2022.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 5.61E-5. 0.0000560794333986447200000000
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 0.78 in 0.00561% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 17,832 random variables Which I absolutely did.
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.
[ 0.51, 0.91 ] 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. - 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.
