PURPOSE (possible uses)

Non-professional investors often try to find an interesting stock among those in an index (such as the Standard and Poor's 500, Nasdaq, etc.). They need only one company, the best, and they don't want to fail (perform poorly). So, the metric to optimize is accuracy, described as:

Accuracy = True Positives / (True Positives + False Positives)

And the predictive model can be a binary classifier.

The data covers the price and volume of shares of 31 NASDAQ companies in the year 2022.

Context

Every data set I found to predict a stock price (investing) aims to find the price for the next day, and only for that stock. But in practical terms, people like to find the best stocks to buy from an index and wait a few days hoping to get an increase in the price of this investment.

Content

Rows are grouped by companies and their age (newest to oldest) on a common date. The first column is the company. The following are the age, market, date (separated by year, month, day, hour, minute), share volume, various traditional prices of that share (close, open, high...), some price and volume statistics and target. The target is mainly defined as 1 when the closing price increases by at least 5% in 5 days (open market days). The target is 0 in any other case.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Market Dynamics of Stock Market

Key Drivers for the Stock Market

Rising Demand for Real-Time Data and Analytics to be an Emerging Market Trend

The increasing need for real-time data and advanced analytics is a significant driver in the stock trading and investing market growth. Investors and traders require up-to-the-minute information on stock prices, market trends, and financial news to make informed decisions quickly. As financial markets become more dynamic and competitive, the ability to access and analyze real-time data becomes crucial for success. Trading applications that offer real-time updates, advanced charting tools, and detailed analytics provide users with a competitive edge by enabling them to react swiftly to market movements. This heightened demand for real-time insights fuels the development and adoption of sophisticated trading platforms that cater to both professional traders and retail investors seeking to maximize their investment opportunities.

Increasing Adoption of Mobile Trading Platforms to Boost Market Growth

The rapid adoption of mobile trading platforms is another key driver for the stock market expansion. With the proliferation of smartphones and mobile internet access, investors are increasingly favoring mobile platforms for their trading activities due to their convenience and accessibility. Mobile trading apps offer users the ability to trade, monitor portfolios, and access financial information on the go, which appeals to both active traders and casual investors. This shift towards mobile platforms is supported by innovations in-app functionality, user experience, and security features. As more investors seek flexibility and real-time engagement with their investments, the demand for sophisticated and user-friendly mobile trading applications continues to rise, propelling market growth.

Restraint Factor for the Stock Market

Stringent Rules and Regulations to Impede the Adoption of Online Trading Platforms

Regulatory compliance and legal challenges are major restraints for the stock trading and investing market share. The financial industry is heavily regulated, with strict rules governing trading practices, data protection, and financial disclosures. Compliance with these regulations requires substantial investment in legal expertise, technology, and administrative processes. Changes in regulations can also introduce uncertainty and additional compliance costs for application providers. For example, regulations such as the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive II (MiFID II) in Europe and the Dodd-Frank Act in the U.S. impose stringent requirements on trading practices and transparency. Failure to adhere to these regulations can result in legal penalties and damage to a company’s reputation, which can inhibit market growth and innovation in trading applications.

Market Volatility and Investor Uncertainty

The stock market is highly sensitive to global economic conditions, geopolitical tensions, interest rate fluctuations, and unexpected events (such as pandemics or wars). This inherent volatility can lead to sharp declines in investor confidence and capital outflows, especially among retai...

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

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!
