How accurate has this been?
| Horizon | Tests | Avg. error | Naive error | In 80% range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3 months | 57 | 53.3 | 51.5 | 81% |
| 6 months | 54 | 60.9 | 58.2 | 81% |
| 12 months | 48 | 77.4 | 64.2 | 94% |
We re-ran the model as if standing at past dates, using only the data available then. Avg. error is the mean absolute gap between the median and what happened; naive assumes no change from the last value. A well-calibrated 80% range contains about 80% of outcomes. Methodology
