In this workshop we introduce the concepts of stationarity, unitary root and cointegration of time-series variables.

We introduce what is a time-series variable and we explain what is an xts-zoo objects and how calculate returns with xts-zoo objects

In this workshop we will learn the basics of simulation in the context of Finance and we will learn how to use simulation to estimate future outcomes in different scenarios.

In this workshop we will learn the basics of simple regression models in the context of Finance and we will learn how to run a regression model for the Market Model.

In this workshop we will learn the basics of simple regression models in the context of Finance. We will learn how to run a regression model for the Market Model and a regression model to estimate the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM).

This is an INDIVIDUAL workshop. In this workshop, besides learning the basics of R, we will work on calculation of returns and basic statistical concepts of Finance and the introduction to hypothesis testing. In addition, we will learn to download financial data from public data sources suchs Yahoo Finance and we will work with the properties of simple and continuously compounded returns.
