Read it as: over 3 months, there is a 10% chance the level ends below the "10%" column, a 10% chance it ends above the "90%" column, and an 80% chance it ends in between. "Chance higher" is the share of comparable past periods, scaled to today's volatility, that ended above the starting level. The centre follows a long-run equity drift of about 6% a year, a stated assumption. It deliberately does not use this index's own past performance, which would reward past winners.

Walk-forward back-test since 26 Aug 2002: every 21 trading days the model was run using only the data available that day, and we counted whether the level later finished inside the 50%, 80% and 90% ranges. A well-calibrated forecast scores about 50%, 80% and 90%. Tests for long horizons overlap, so they are not independent. This is the history of this one asset; the pooled results for all stock indices are on the forecasts page. The raw 80% range for stock indices was a little too narrow in the back-test (it held 77% to 82% of the time depending on the horizon), so the ranges are widened by 1.05× to 1.10×. That factor was fitted once on all stock indices, so the table is partly in-sample.
Live record: every forecast is stored once a week and checked when its horizon passes. The first snapshots were stored on 5 Oct 2026; the 1-week ones resolve within days and the 12-month ones in a year. Results will appear here as they come in, good or bad.
How the ranges are built
- Take the daily price history and measure today's volatility with an exponentially weighted average of squared returns (the RiskMetrics method, decay 0.94).
- For every past day, record how far the price moved over the horizon in units of that day's volatility. This keeps the real shape of past outcomes: fat tails and skew included.
- Take the 5th, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th and 95th percentiles of the last ten years of those outcomes and scale them back by today's volatility. That gives the bands.
- Run the same recipe walk-forward through history to count how often the ranges held, and widen them where they were too narrow.
What it does not do. It does not know about earnings, central-bank meetings, elections or news, and it assumes the next period is drawn from the same distribution as the last ten years, so a regime change can break it. Treat the ranges as the minimum width of what could happen, not the maximum. Full method and results: forecasts.
