Independent checks confirm 5217 input rows, 215 empty rows and 5001 changes (2500 train / 2500+1 test). The task rules are followed: empty rows are dropped before differencing; weekday means are estimated on the train period only (≤2009-12-31); the prescribed classical ANOVA is used; and the Welch method for the Monday contrast is stated. The conclusion code follows the decision rule. Claims match the numbers and carry appropriate caveats. Limitations are discussed honestly (Levene rejection, volatility clustering, holiday and weekend spans, single split). Only minor wording and count issues were found."}8
