* Define and describe the properties of autoregressive moving average (ARMA) processes.

* Describe the application of AR, MA, and ARMA processes.

* Describe sample autocorrelation and partial autocorrelation.

* Describe the Box-Pierce Q-statistic and the Ljung-Box Q statistic.

* Explain how forecasts are generated from ARMA models.

* Describe the role of mean reversion in long-horizon forecasts.
