[[INTRODUCTION]]
The enchanting world of social media and the labyrinthine landscape of financial markets have long stood as separate dominions, each with its own peculiarities and idiosyncrasies. However, as the digital age continues to unfold, the boundaries between these realms blur and intertwine in unforeseen and sometimes whimsical ways. In this vein, our study delves into the enthralling connection between the captivating video titles of MrBeast on YouTube and the stock performance of HDFC Bank (HDB).
As we embark on this captivating quest of uncovering the unexpected ties between MrBeast's YouTube prowess and HDFC's financial fate, it brings to mind a fitting dad joke: "Why did the statistician put a bar of soap in his pocket? Because he heard that good hygiene is positively correlated with good health, and he wanted to clean up in the statistics world!" Much like the delightful surprise of stumbling upon a pun, our research aims to reveal the unforeseen correlations that may arise in the most unlikely of places – this time, in the realms of social media and stock performance.
Surveying the literature, we find that the intersection of social media content and financial markets has been a topic of growing interest in recent years. However, the connection between the creative brilliance of video titles and stock prices remains largely uncharted territory. This presents an opportunity to blaze new trails and illuminate a hitherto unexplored facet of this dynamic relationship.
In the spirit of scientific inquiry and a good pun, we might say that our study aims to "unveil the 'statistickle' interplay between MrBeast's clever video titles and the 'stock-ing' behavior of HDFC Bank's performance."

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
In "Smith et al.'s study,” the authors find that captivating YouTube video titles can have a profound impact on viewer engagement, with implications for social media influence and user behavior. This investigation into the power of video titles sets the stage for our exploration of the unforeseen connection between the whimsical wizardry of MrBeast's YouTube titles and the fluctuating fortunes of HDFC Bank's stock price.
Turning to "Doe and Jones' research," we observe the burgeoning interest in the intersection of social media content and financial markets, shedding light on the evolving landscape of digital influence and market dynamics. As we venture further into this captivating research, it brings to mind a fitting dad joke: "Why don't statisticians trust atoms? Because they make up everything!" Much like the quirky world of statistics, our study aims to unravel the unexpected and often comical correlations that may arise in the most surprising of contexts.
Delving into non-fiction works such as "Freakonomics" and "Predictably Irrational," we encounter insightful perspectives on the unpredictability of human behavior and the interplay of seemingly unrelated factors in shaping outcomes. In a lighthearted twist, we might ponder, "Would MrBeast's video titles fall under the 'freakonomics' of stock market influence?" Embracing the humor and intrigue of this inquiry, we journey into the uncharted territory of elucidating the whimsical web woven by YouTube titles and stock performance.
Shifting our focus to fiction, the world of "Thinking, Fast and Slow" and "The Black Swan" beckons with its narrative of unexpected connections and serendipitous twists. One might jest, "Are we venturing into a 'black swan' event with MrBeast's video titles impacting stock prices, or is it simply a fantastical fable in the making?" Embracing the spirit of playful speculation and scholarly curiosity, we embark on a whimsical intellectual escapade to uncover the hidden forces at play in this curious correlation.
As we traverse the boundaries of conventional research, we are drawn to eclectic sources of insight, including the unexpected realms of everyday wisdom and unorthodox perspectives. In a comically unconventional turn, one could quip, "If knowledge is power, then reading CVS receipts might just qualify as a research methodology – you never know what financial secrets lurk among the printed coupons!" With a twinkle in our eye and a penchant for the unexpected, we confront the unconventional with a fervent curiosity and a good-humored acknowledgment of the surprises that await in this uncharted territory.

[[METHODOLOGY]]
To initiate our spirited exploration into the mystical connection between MrBeast's YouTube video titles and HDFC Bank's stock price (HDB), we employed a multifaceted approach that combined AI analysis of YouTube video titles with comprehensive financial data obtained from LSEG Analytics (Refinitiv) for the period spanning from 2012 to 2023.
Firstly, our team of intrepid researchers embarked on a quest to harness the power of artificial intelligence in dissecting the linguistic and emotional nuances embedded within MrBeast's delightfully captivating video titles. Leveraging cutting-edge natural language processing techniques, we unraveled the semantic layers of MrBeast's titles with the precision of a seasoned cryptographer deciphering an ancient text. One might say we were delving into the 'statistics of speech,' seeking to unveil the hidden correlations lurking amidst the clever wordplay and evocative phrases.
Seeking to capture the essence of MrBeast's YouTube title magic, we extracted a plethora of linguistic and sentiment-based features from the video titles using a convolutional neural network (CNN) combined with recurrent neural network (RNN) architectures. It was a bit like summoning the powers of statistical sorcery to illuminate the enigmatic relationship between linguistic ingenuity and financial fortuity. As the data shimmered with insights and peculiar patterns, we couldn't help but muse, "Who knew that a convolutional neural network could also uncover the 'hidden layers' within MrBeast's titles?"
Simultaneously, we delved into the realm of financial markets, tapping into the wealth of historical stock price data for HDFC Bank (HDB). Our inquisitive expedition through the labyrinthine corridors of stock market data resembled a quest for lost treasure, with each data point akin to a glittering gem waiting to reveal its secrets. Employing robust statistical methods, we meticulously teased out the temporal patterns and cyclical undulations in HDB's stock prices, all the while contemplating the whimsical dance of market forces and the ebullient charm of MrBeast's YouTube empire.
To unveil the captivating interplay between MrBeast's title finesse and HDFC Bank's financial fate, we employed a myriad of statistical tools, including time series analysis, correlation coefficients, and multivariate regression models. We sought to capture the elusive essence of causation amid the shimmering sea of correlation, all the while marveling at the intricate dance between linguistic whimsy and financial dynamics.
In a way, our methodology could be likened to navigating through the scientific seas, wielding a statistical compass and a linguistic sextant, charting a course through uncharted waters in search of the hidden treasure of insight. As we gazed upon the data, peppering our research meetings with puns and witticisms, one could say we were on a quest to uncover the 'hidden perils' of statistical inference and the 'statisticks' of linguistic persuasion.
Ultimately, our methodology aimed to fuse the worlds of linguistic analysis and financial investigation in a manner as whimsical as it was rigorous, encapsulating the enigmatic union of MrBeast's YouTube wizardry and the capricious dance of HDB's stock price movements.

See what else correlates with HDFC Bank's stock price (HDB)
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 = 0.8168795 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 81.7% of the change in the one variable (i.e., HDFC Bank's stock price (HDB)) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., How good MrBeast's YouTube video titles are) over the 12 years from 2012 through 2023.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 5.51E-5. 0.0000550665715161992800000000
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 0.9 in 0.00551% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 18,160 random variables Which I absolutely did.
with the same 11 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 11 because we have two variables measured over a period of 12 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.
[ 0.69, 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. - 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.
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.

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."
