Understanding spurious correlation: a rejoinder to Kliman

This paper is a rejoinder to Kliman's (2008-9) reply to a paper published in the >i>Journal of Post Keynesian Economics>/i> by Díaz and Osuna (2005-6). We show that Kliman's reasoning about spurious correlation rests on the popular confusion between correlation and causation.
