I need academic quotes (e.g. journals, textbooks, etc.) on statistics
that support regression analysis as the best way to forecast the
future based on the past. I have a time series that includes
historical data on revenue and number of new customers (yearly data).
I used a regression analysis model to predict future revenue and new
customers from this data. I need strong academic quotes to support
that regression analysis is the best method to forecast into the
future from this historical data.
