&lt;p&gt;In finance, decisions are rarely about a single “forecast” price: they are about &lt;strong&gt;ranges&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;tail risk&lt;/strong&gt;, and &lt;strong&gt;how wrong&lt;/strong&gt; simple models can be. This article walks through a &lt;strong&gt;Monte Carlo path simulation&lt;/strong&gt; in Python: we estimate drift and volatility from historical closes, simulate many future price paths (a geometric Brownian–style discrete step), and summarize the result as a &lt;strong&gt;distribution&lt;/strong&gt;—the right object for risk-style questions (bands, percentiles, coverage against a hold-out period).&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
