The index numbers forthe remaining five series are given in Table J. Coin and bullion in the Reichsbank was correlated with theother series in the group. The coefficients of correlation ap-pear in Table IX. 64 UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN STUDIES TABLE IX COEFFICIENTS OF CORRELATION—GERMAN BANKING GROUP Series correlated with Coin and Bullion Each series precedes (—) or lags behind In Reichsbank: ( + ) coin and bullion by: —1 mo. 0 mo. +1 mo. -f-2 mo. -+-3 mo. +4 mo. +5 : +.502 +.389 Loans: —.523 —.5S8 —.584 Open Market Rates: —.603 —.671 —.711 —.732 —.676 Bank Rate: —.504 —.636 —.699 —.756 —.769 —.739 From this it appears that deposits and loans are substantiallysynchronous with coin and bullion.
