In this exercise, we discuss thinking probabilistically and how to apply this framework to an individual security. The reason we want to think probabilistically is that it's how markets price securities. The future is never certain, nor is it discrete; everything is a range of outcomes. For empirical evidence that markets are adept at pricing proba...
