These files were created for my personal research use.
The Prophet's prediction consists of three parts: US dollar interest rates, Japanese yen interest rates, and yen/dollar exchange rates.
The purpose is to predict the future exchange rates based on the two interest rates.
The reason for choosing the interest rates as regressors is to see how the correlation between interest rates and exchange rates
clarified in the interest parity holds in the prediction.
