Over the past 200 stock-trading days data is collected concerning whether the stock index, called the S&P 500, increased or decreased as well as whether the individual stock Apple increased or decreased. Apple stock increased in price on 130 of the days. The S&P 500 increased on 150 of the days. Finally, Apple increased and the S&P 500 increased on 100 of the days.
