Coronavirus sparks stock market chaos Stock markets plunged in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, with investors fearing its spread would destroy economic growth. Buoyed by figures that suggested cases were leveling off in China, investors were initially optimistic about the virus being contained. However, confidence in the market started to subside as the number of cases increased worldwide. Investors were deterred from buying stocks, and this was reflected in the markets – the values of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Nasdaq Composite also dived during the height of the crisis. What is a bear market? A bear market occurs when the value of a stock market suffers a prolonged decline of more than 20 percent over a period of at least 2 months. The COVID-19 pandemic caused severe concern and sent stock markets on a steep downward spiral. The S&P 500 achieved a record closing high of ***** on February 19, 2020.

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

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!
