Generating one-step-ahead predictions
It is very hard to forecast stock prices. Classic economics actually tells us that this should be impossible because of market clearing.
Your task in this exercise is to attempt the impossible and predict the Amazon stock price anyway.
In this exercise you will generate one-step-ahead predictions for the stock price as well as the uncertainty of these predictions.
A model has already been fitted to the Amazon data for you. The results object from this model is available in your environment as results
.
