The capability to generate, gather, process, analyze and extract meaningful insights from data is becoming an increasingly vital skill to possess. Data is the raw material and the commodity of the Digital Age. It is everywhere and in growing abudance. It is mallaeable...and can be parsed and processed, organized and analyzed...to reveal truths and pathways previously hidden.

I see Data Science as a skill of the Digital Age Alchemist...the Data Cowboys of Science Fiction...but now accessible to almost anyone. Mastery will mean the ability to access a new viewport to reality that...at th moment...very few have access too.

I look forward to this course to afford me entry into a mysterious, wonderous new world.

While I did not arrive at truly meaningful results, the Final Presentation work points to the possibilities that Data Science could be utilized, in expert hands, to generate insights previously incessible to Securities Analysts.
