M1 Money Supply includes funds that are readily accessible for spending. M2 Money Supply is a broad measure of money supply that includes M1

in addition to all time-related deposits, savings deposits, and non-institutional money-market funds. M3 money supply is the broadest monetary

aggregate, including physical currency, demand accounts, savings and money market accounts, certificates of deposit, deposits of eurodollars and

repurchase agreements. Standard deviation is a measure of the dispersion of a set of data from its mean. The more spread apart the data, the

higher the deviation. Standard deviation is also known as historical volatility.
