Heavier Tails

Skewness: Skewness measures the asymmetry of a distribution. A positively skewed distribution has a longer tail on the right side, while a negatively skewed distribution has a longer tail on the left side.

Kurtosis: Kurtosis measures how peaked or flat a distribution is compared to the normal distribution. Higher kurtosis indicates heavier tails and more extreme values.

Outliers: Outliers are data points that significantly deviate from other observations in a dataset. They can contribute to heavier tails in distributions.
