Specific things that could be improved upon:
image
can go into the results
folder for better organization)Running the analysis
, you might want to specify that you're running the command in the root folder of the project file that was cloned for claritydocker compose up
without the jupyter-lab
componentNo such kernel named conda-env-522Group3-py
- the project I did was in R so I'm actually not familiar with whether I needed to install and activate the conda environment inside jupyter lab's terminaldata
section after the section titled model
should really be shown earlier in the method

docker compose up jupyter-lab
but the service name should be t1
not jupyter-lab

We ask the question: given inflation rate and interest rate data, can we predict whether we will profit if we invest in a stock market index and hold for 1 year.
The data we use including the Standard & Poors 500 Index (S&P500) as stock market proxy and the inflation data obtained from calculating the change of consumer price index (CPI) from the Federal Reserve Economic Data website. Also being included is the target interest rate -- Federal funds rate, which is set by the Federal reserve for commercial banks to lend and borrow overnight.
The model training is designed such that it follows the Golden Rule. The test data of dummy regression yields an accuracy of 75.9%. The accuracy of dummy regression is better then the accuracy of logistic regression. The model's performance may be sensitive to hyperparameter settings, therefore it can be helpful to improve the model performance to experiment with different configurations through hyperparameter tuning.
