# 3 Rolling Standard Deviation ----
# Why rolling sd?
# Suppose that we have 10 years of data and calculated standard deviation for every six months.
# Consider two different scenarios: 1) sd of each six-month period is always 3% and
# 2) sd for each six-month period fluctuated between 0% and 6%.
# It's possible that both scenarios have the same 3% sd for the entire period, which are not the same.
# Rolling sd can show us what might have caused spikes in volatility.
# and consider dynamically rebalancing the portfolio to better manage the volatility
# Assign a value to winder
