Most investors in Apple cannot accurately predict what will happen the next trading day because, historically, stock markets tend to be unpredictable and even illogical. Modeling turbulent structures requires applying different statistical methods, techniques, and algorithms to find hidden data structures or patterns within the Apple's time series price data and predict how it will affect future prices. One of these methodologies is forecasting, which interprets Apple's price structures and extracts relationships that further increase the generated results' accuracy.
A naive forecasting model for Apple is a special case of the moving average forecasting where the number of periods used for smoothing is one. Therefore, the forecast of Apple Inc value for a given trading day is simply the observed value for the previous period. Due to the simplistic nature of the naive forecasting model, it can only be used to forecast up to one period.
