i'm looking at the differential equations for a geometric Brownian motion process with a rate of appreciation of alpha and volatility of sigma.



I don't understand the differential equation listed on page 473 of the manual. table 23.1



the 4th bullet:



ln X(t) / X(0) is N(ln X(0) + (alpha - 0.5sigma^2)*t , sigma^2 * t)



somehow I cant get this. more specifically why lnx(t) / x(0) with a mean inclusive of ln x(0)?
