Model Predictive Factors

The table below summarizes the 4 Period Moving Average model's error metrics for Alignment Healthcare stock. Lower MAD and MAPE values indicate tighter forecast accuracy.

The model is suited for higher-volatility price series where a two-period average would be too reactive. It does not extrapolate a trend equation, so its forecasting utility is limited to one or two periods ahead. Tighter error metrics (lower MAD/MAPE) indicate that Alignment Healthcare price movement is well-captured by this smoothing window.
