Given 90 days horizon, the Polynomial Regression forecasted value of Merck Co on the next trading day is expected to be 98.01 with a mean absolute deviation of 1.27, mean absolute percentage error of 2.31, and the sum of the absolute errors of 77.66.
Please note that although there have been many attempts to predict Merck Stock prices using its time series forecasting, we generally do not recommend using it to place bets in the real market. The most commonly used models for forecasting predictions are the autoregressive models, which specify that Merck's next future price depends linearly on its previous prices and some stochastic term (i.e., imperfectly predictable multiplier).
