The process of understanding the complexity of many 3-flip sequences for tossing a coin is about to become more difficult. This is because are going to enter the arcane world of permutations and combinations. As a result, this is counting on a scale far more complex than that learned in elementary school.
Flipping a coin three times seems like a simple process. But there are myriad complications that can arise. In Part 1 of this series, we saw that data sampling for coin flips can influence how results are interpreted. In this post, we will look closely at how probability assessments (possibilities) can lead to propositions deviating from the reality ensuing when coin flips are actually carried out. We will consider the concept of ‘alternate universes’. Who would have guessed that flipping a coin three times would go there?
Note: A major addition was added to the conclusion at 1:43 a.m. EDT on October 23, 2023.
This article concludes the analysis of the correlation patterns between Mortgage Debt and Consumer Inflation (CPI). The last of the three types of inflation patterns (time periods with no significant inflation trends) is the subject of analysis here. The other two types of patterns (inflation surges1 and disinflation/deflation surges2) were analyzed previously. The conclusion discusses the correlation patterns for all time periods, looks for any common threads, and identifies important differences across time periods and types of correlation patterns.
The full data sets for the 71 years from 1952 to 2022 show no discernable association patterns (correlations) for Mortgage Debt growth and inflation changes.1 Thus, we started an analysis by looking specifically at the various regimes of inflation change during the 71-year timeline. The most recent post2 analyzed the eight time periods over 71 years with positive inflation surges. This article analyzes the five periods between 1952 and 2019 with negative inflation (disinflation/deflation) surges.

Mortgage debt is the third area of money creation that we examine for associations with inflation. Two previous studies have analyzed the areas of federal government deficit spending1 and consumer credit.2
