This project is mainly for understanding some basic terminologies about the stock market.
The highest and close prices are useful what identifying what was the highest the stocks reached daily and at what price the market closed.
Volume traded basically gives information about the volatility of the stocks. If the lines keep dropping and raising over time the stocks show that they are more volatile. (For safety in investment, people prefer to invest in stocks which are less volatile)
The cumulative return tells you for every dollar invested on start date what is the return you'll get for end date.
