Comment on S&P500 Normalized with M2

Comments

It might surprise no one here that people who are professionals in the finance industry are capable of adjusting for inflation:

You can also note that M2 is correlated basically with inflation in the long run (Rsquared ~0.92)

The error on the part of the twitter user is that he's using nominal values instead of % growth (log-log) values. Something you learn in 101 econometrics.

This is why you don't listen to crypto bros on matters of monetary economics.
