In desperate need of help! (Regression question …?

I have been given some information that contains the price of oil, gold, 3 tbill month, SP-500 and the Nasdaq. I need to create a regression, but do not know what to use as independent variable. Does anyone have any idea what I'm supposed to do? I have two years of data. I do a regression for each year? Also can anyone tell me what the Excel solver is used for? and how could I use? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! sorry i have little information! I have to come to a hypothesis and create a regression manifold.

The choice of regression depends on what you want out of it (not told). One of the simplest to address is the minimum adjustment square-Excel is capable of. The Excel solver is used for constrained optimization problems, such as: What is the maximum area of ​​a region rectangular can build a fence around it, if the perimeter of the fence must be <= 300 feet? (This last constraint is called a constraint, and reflects real world limitations, such as the availability of only a certain amount of fence material.)
