These move in the same direction about 63% of the time
When one swings, the other often swings by a similar amount (~47% of the pattern is shared).
A real but noisy link — useful as context, risky as a standalone signal.
On a log scale so equal % moves take equal vertical space — best when one series has grown much faster than the other.
