In this lab challenge, you will be tested on your scikit-learn skills to build a machine learning pipeline to predict the price of a stock. Here, you will be tested on data preprocessing, fitting, and evaluation of the regression model. 

To get the most from this lab, it is recommended to have confidence and exposure to at least the following libraries: pandas, matplotlib and scikit-learn.

You are strongly encourage to have completed the following courses, available in our content library:

• Building a Machine Learning pipeline with scikit-learn: part 01
• Building a Machine Learning pipeline with scikit-learn: part 02

as well as the following lab:

• Introduction to Financial Data Manipulation with Python
