Inspecting the stock prices

Now that we have some hold on the textual data, let's turn our attention to the stock prices. Previously, we loaded it from the CSV file using the financial.csv-data/read-stock-prices function. Let's reload that data with the following commands:

user=> (def stock (csvd/read-stock-prices "d/d-1995-2001.csv"))
user=> (count stock)
1263

Let's start with a graph that shows how the closing price has changed over the years:

So the price started in the low 30s, fluctuated a bit, and finished in the low 20s. During that time, there were some periods where it climbed rapidly. Hopefully, we'll be able to capture and predict those changes.
