You are given a DataFrame containing daily closing prices for three stocks over ten days. Your task is to analyze the data as follows:
- Calculate the daily returns for each stock as the percentage change from the previous day's closing price;
- Compute the average daily return for each stock;
- Compute the volatility (standard deviation) of the daily returns for each stock;
- Print a summary table (as a DataFrame) with one row for each stock and columns for average return and volatility (both as decimals, not percentages).
Make sure your summary table is clear and easy to read. Use only the libraries provided above.
