In this project, we'll be working with data from the S&P500 Index. The S&P500 is a stock market index.
We'll be using historical data on the price of the S&P500 Index to make predictions about future prices. Predicting whether an index will go up or down will help us forecast how the stock market as a whole will perform.
We'll be working with a csv file containing index prices. Each row in the file contains a daily record of the price of the S&P500 Index from 1950 to 2015. The dataset is stored in sphist.csv
