In 2024, ** percent of adults in the United States invested in the stock market. This figure has remained steady over the last few years, and is still below the levels before the Great Recession, when it peaked in 2007 at ** percent. What is the stock market? The stock market can be defined as a group of stock exchanges, where investors can buy shares in a publicly traded company. In more recent years, it is estimated an increasing number of Americans are using neobrokers, making stock trading more accessible to investors. Other investments A significant number of people think stocks and bonds are the safest investments, while others point to real estate, gold, bonds, or a savings account. Since witnessing the significant one-day losses in the stock market during the Financial Crisis, many investors were turning towards these alternatives in hopes for more stability, particularly for investments with longer maturities. This could explain the decrease in this statistic since 2007. Nevertheless, some speculators enjoy chasing the short-run fluctuations, and others see value in choosing particular stocks.

This table contains 14 series, with data starting from 1953 (not all combinations necessarily have data for all years). This table contains data described by the following dimensions (Not all combinations are available): Geography (1 items: Canada ...), Stock market statistics (14 items: Toronto Stock Exchange; value of shares traded; United States common stocks; Dow-Jones industrials; high; United States common stocks; Dow-Jones industrials; low; Toronto Stock Exchange; volume of shares traded ...).

Context

Stock market data can be interesting to analyze and as a further incentive, strong predictive models can have large financial payoff. The amount of financial data on the web is seemingly endless. A large and well structured dataset on a wide array of companies can be hard to come by. Here I provide a dataset with historical stock prices (last 5 years) for all companies currently found on the S&P 500 index.

The script I used to acquire all of these .csv files can be found in this GitHub repository In the future if you wish for a more up to date dataset, this can be used to acquire new versions of the .csv files.

Content

The data is presented in a couple of formats to suit different individual's needs or computational limitations. I have included files containing 5 years of stock data (in the all_stocks_5yr.csv and corresponding folder) and a smaller version of the dataset (all_stocks_1yr.csv) with only the past year's stock data for those wishing to use something more manageable in size.

The folder individual_stocks_5yr contains files of data for individual stocks, labelled by their stock ticker name. The all_stocks_5yr.csv and all_stocks_1yr.csv contain this same data, presented in merged .csv files. Depending on the intended use (graphing, modelling etc.) the user may prefer one of these given formats.

All the files have the following columns: Date - in format: yy-mm-dd Open - price of the stock at market open (this is NYSE data so all in USD) High - Highest price reached in the day Low Close - Lowest price reached in the day Volume - Number of shares traded Name - the stock's ticker name

Inspiration

This dataset lends itself to a some very interesting visualizations. One can look at simple things like how prices change over time, graph an compare multiple stocks at once, or generate and graph new metrics from the data provided. From these data informative stock stats such as volatility and moving averages can be easily calculated. The million dollar question is: can you develop a model that can beat the market and allow you to make statistically informed trades!

The value of the DJIA index amounted to ********* at the end of March 2025, up from ********* at the end of March 2020. Global panic about the coronavirus epidemic caused the drop in March 2020, which was the worst drop since the collapse of Lehman Brothers in 2008. Dow Jones Industrial Average index – additional information The Dow Jones Industrial Average index is a price-weighted average of 30 of the largest American publicly traded companies on New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ, and includes companies like Goldman Sachs, IBM and Walt Disney. This index is considered to be a barometer of the state of the American economy. DJIA index was created in 1986 by Charles Dow. Along with the NASDAQ 100 and S&P 500 indices, it is amongst the most well-known and used stock indexes in the world. The year that the 2018 financial crisis unfolded was one of the worst years of the Dow. It was also in 2008 that some of the largest ever recorded losses of the Dow Jones Index based on single-day points were registered. On September 29, 2008, for instance, the Dow had a loss of ****** points, one of the largest single-day losses of all times. The best years in the history of the index still are 1915, when the index value increased by ***** percent in one year, and 1933, year when the index registered a growth of ***** percent.

The Value Line Investment Survey is one of the oldest, continuously running investment advisory publications. Since 1955, the Survey has been published in multiple formats including print, loose-leaf, microfilm and microfiche. Data from 1997 to present is now available online. The Survey tracks 1700 stocks across 92 industry groups. It provides reported and projected measures of firm performance, proprietary rankings and analysis for each stock on a quarterly basis. DATA AVAILABLE FOR YEARS: 1980-1989 This dataset, a subset of the Survey covering the years 1980-1989 has been digitized from the microfiche collection available at the Dewey Library (FICHE HG 4501.V26). It is only available to MIT students and faculty for academic research. Published weekly, each edition of the Survey has the following three parts: Summary & Index: includes an alphabetical listing of all industries with their relative ranking and the page number for detailed industry analysis. It also includes an alphabetical listing of all stocks in the publication with references to their location in Part 3, Ratings & Reports. Selection & Opinion: contains the latest economic and stock market commentary and advice along with one or more pages of research on interesting stocks or industries, and a variety of pertinent economic and stock market statistics. It also includes three model stock portfolios. Ratings & Reports: This is the core of the Value Line Investment Survey. Preceded by an industry report, each one-page stock report within that industry includes Timeliness, Safety and Technical rankings, 3-to 5-year analyst forecasts for stock prices, income and balance sheet items, up to 17 years of historical data, and Value Line analysts’ commentaries. The report also contains stock price charts, quarterly sales, earnings, and dividend information. Publication Schedule: Each edition of the Survey covers around 130 stocks in seven to eight industries on a preset sequential schedule so that all 1700 stocks are analyzed once every 13 weeks or each quarter. All editions are numbered 1-13 within each quarter. For example, in 1980, reports for Chrysler appear in edition 1 of each quarter on the following dates: January 4, 1980 – page 132 April 4, 1980 – page 133 July 4, 1980 – page 133 October 1, 1980 – page 133 Reports for Coca-Cola were published in edition 10 of each quarter on: March 7, 1980 – page 1514 June 6, 1980 – page 1518 Sept. 5, 1980 – page 1517 Dec. 5, 1980 – page 1548 Any significant news affecting a stock between quarters is covered in the supplementary reports that appear at the end of part 3, Ratings & Reports. File format: Digitized files within this dataset are in PDF format and are arranged by publication date within each compressed annual folder. How to Consult the Value Line Investment Survey: To find reports on a particular stock, consult the alphabetical listing of stocks in the Summary & Index part of the relevant weekly edition. Look for the page number just to the left of the company name and then use the table below to identify the edition where that page number appears. All editions within a given quarter are numbered 1-13 and follow equally sized page ranges for stock reports. The table provides page ranges for stock reports within editions 1-13 of 1980 Q1. It can be used to identify edition and page numbers for any quarter within a given year. Ratings & Reports Edition Pub. Date Pages 1 04-Jan-80 100-242 2 11-Jan-80 250-392 3 18-Jan-80 400-542 4 25-Jan-80 550-692 5 01-Feb-80 700-842 6 08-Feb-80 850-992 7 15-Feb-80 1000-1142 8 22-Feb-80 1150-1292 9 29-Feb-80 1300-1442 10 07-Mar-80 1450-1592 11 14-Mar-80 1600-1742 12 21-Mar-80 1750-1908 13 28-Mar-80 2000-2142 Another way to navigate to the Ratings & Reports part of an edition would be to look around page 50 within the PDF document. Note that the page numbers of the PDF will not match those within the publication.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) index dropped around ***** points in the four weeks from February 12 to March 11, 2020, but has since recovered and peaked at ********* points as of November 24, 2024. In February 2020 - just prior to the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the DJIA index stood at a little over ****** points. U.S. markets suffer as virus spreads The COVID-19 pandemic triggered a turbulent period for stock markets – the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite also recorded dramatic drops. At the start of February, some analysts remained optimistic that the outbreak would ease. However, the increased spread of the virus started to hit investor confidence, prompting a record plunge in the stock markets. The Dow dropped by more than ***** points in the week from February 21 to February 28, which was a fall of **** percent – its worst percentage loss in a week since October 2008. Stock markets offer valuable economic insights The Dow Jones Industrial Average is a stock market index that monitors the share prices of the 30 largest companies in the United States. By studying the performance of the listed companies, analysts can gauge the strength of the domestic economy. If investors are confident in a company’s future, they will buy its stocks. The uncertainty of the coronavirus sparked fears of an economic crisis, and many traders decided that investment during the pandemic was too risky.

View data of the S&P 500, an index of the stocks of 500 leading companies in the US economy, which provides a gauge of the U.S. equity market.

This study examines how news is distributed across stocks. A model is developed that categorizes a stock's latent news into normal and nonnormal news, and allows both types of news to be filtered through to other stocks. This is achieved by formulating a model that jointly incorporates a multivariate lognormal-Poisson jump process (for nonnormal news) and a multivariate GARCH process (for normal news), in addition to a news (or shock) transmission mechanism that allows the shocks from both processes to impact intertemporally on all stocks in the system. The relationship between news and the expected volatility surface is explored and a unique news impact surface is derived that depends on time, news magnitude, and news type. We find that the effect of nonnormal news on volatility expectations typically builds up before dissipating, with the news transmission mechanism effectively crowding-out normal news and crowding-in nonnormal news. Moreover, in contrast to the standard approach for measuring leverage effects using asymmetric generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity models, we find that leverage effects stem predominantly from nonnormal news. Finally, we find that the capacity to identify positively or negatively correlated stock returns is ambiguous in the short term, and depends heavily on the behavior of the nonnormal news component.

This analysis presents a rigorous exploration of financial data, incorporating a diverse range of statistical features. By providing a robust foundation, it facilitates advanced research and innovative modeling techniques within the field of finance.
