These move in the same direction about 72% of the time
Their swing sizes only faintly line up (~2% of the pattern is shared).
Strong enough to use as a signal — check the stability and regime notes below before relying on it.
On a log scale so equal % moves take equal vertical space — best when one series has grown much faster than the other.
What to Watch
Slipping tighter
The recent pattern is tighter than its long-run baseline — keep an eye on whether this sticks.
USD/VES Exchange Rate moves ~18 months before Avg Hourly Earnings
Watch USD/VES Exchange Rate for an early read on Avg Hourly Earnings.
Flips between sync and inverse
Sometimes the two move together, sometimes opposite. Don't treat this as a stable signal.

Time-Shifted Correlation
See how correlation changes when one series is offset in time. A taller bar at a non-zero shift means the two move together better when one leads the other — that's a potential lead/lag signal.

+10% stronger than no-shift baseline
USD/VES Exchange Rate shifted 18 months later. Reads: "Does Avg Hourly Earnings today line up with USD/VES Exchange Rate 18 months ago?"

Baseline
+16%
No-shift correlation, matching the main time-series chart above.
Peak shift
-18 months
+26%
A non-zero peak suggests one series lines up better when shifted against the other.
Stability
How the correlation evolves over time. A stable line means the relationship is reliable; large swings signal regime-dependent behavior.
Do They Crash Together?
How these series behave when markets are rising, falling, or diverging. A correlation that holds in drawdowns is very different from one that only works in rallies.
