In 2024, ** percent of adults in the United States invested in 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.

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 New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is the largest stock exchange in the world, with an equity market capitalization of almost ** trillion U.S. dollars as of June 2025. The following three exchanges were the NASDAQ, PINK Exchange, and the Frankfurt Exchange. What is a stock exchange? A stock exchange is a marketplace where stockbrokers, traders, buyers, and sellers can trade in equities products. The largest exchanges have thousands of listed companies. These companies sell shares of their business, giving the general public the opportunity to invest in them. The oldest stock exchange worldwide is the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, founded in the late sixteenth century. Other functions of a stock exchange Since these are publicly traded companies, every firm listed on a stock exchange has had an initial public offering (IPO). The largest IPOs can raise billions of dollars in equity for the firm involved. Related to stock exchanges are derivatives exchanges, where stock options, futures contracts, and other derivatives can be traded.
