Based on the time series of the stock return, answer the following questions (NB: you should have 319 monthly returns):
Calculate the sample mean or average of the stock return:
Calculate the sample standard deviation of the stock return:
!!! For the questions below, use the values for the mean and std. dev. that you typed above (only the first 2 decimals)!!!
Assuming that the returns follow a normal distribution:
Calculate the P(return > 2.21):
