Q1 filter Select stock returns of January 31, 2020.

Hint: See the code in 1.2.2 Selecting observations.

Jan31 <- filter(stock_returns, date == "2020-1-31")

Q2 Which of the three stocks performed best on January 31, 2020?

Amazon was the best performing stock that day. They went up 7%

Q3 Plot the distribution of daily returns by stock using boxplots.

ggplot(stock_returns, aes(x = symbol, y= daily.returns)) + geom_boxplot() + labs(title = "Daily Returns by Stock")

Q4 Based on the boxplot above, which of the three stocks performed best this year?

The stock that performed the best this year was Amazon in comparison of the medians on the Boxplot.

Q5 Calculate mean daily returns for each stock.

Hint: See the code in 4.3.1 Bar chart (on summary statistics).

library(dplyr)
MeanDailyReturn <- stock_returns %>%
  group_by(symbol) %>%
  summarize(mean_returns = mean(daily.returns))

Q6 Plot mean daily returns using bar charts.

Hint: See the code in 4.3.1 Bar chart (on summary statistics). Add an appropriate title and labels for both axes.

ggplot(MeanDailyReturn, aes(x = symbol, y = mean_returns)) + geom_bar(stat = "identity")

Q7 Create the line plot of stock prices for all three stocks in one graph.

library(ggplot2)
ggplot(stock_returns, aes(x = date, y = daily.returns, group = symbol, color = symbol)) + geom_line()

Q7.a filter Create the same line plot as in Q7, but without Amazon.

Note: Insert a new code chunk below, copy and paste the code in Q7, and revise it using the dplyr::filter function. This is an extra credit question worth 10 points. However, the total number of points you could earn for this quiz is capped at 100 points. In other words, the extra credit can only offset any one question you missed in the first seven questions.
