In this paper, the stock price prediction is made for two of the world’s largest competitors in automotive industry - Toyota and General Motors.

After price simulation, a comparative analysis of the results obtained for these two companies follows. The results show that the greater the number of outcomes specified in the prediction, the greater the variability of the results compared to the variability of historical data. In other words, the transition of General Motors to the leading position is not impossible.</p>
