1) Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA): Analyze the distribution of stock prices and volumes for each company over time. Visualize trends, seasonality, and patterns in the stock market data using line charts, bar plots, and heatmaps.

2)Correlation Analysis: Investigate the correlations between the closing prices of different companies to identify potential relationships. Calculate correlation coefficients and visualize correlation matrices.

3)Top Performers Identification: Identify the top-performing companies based on their stock price growth and trading volumes over a specific time period.

4)Market Sentiment Analysis: Perform sentiment analysis using Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques on news headlines related to each company. Determine whether positive or negative news impacts the stock prices and volumes.

5)Volatility Analysis: Calculate the volatility of each company's stock prices using metrics like Standard Deviation or Bollinger Bands. Analyze how volatile stocks are in comparison to others.

Machine Learning Tasks:

About Dataset 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.

Feb 2018 note: I have just updated the dataset to include data up to Feb 2018. I have also accounted for changes in the stocks on the S&P 500 index (RIP whole foods etc. etc.).

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 allstocks5yr.csv and corresponding folder).

The folder individualstocks5yr contains files of data for individual stocks, labelled by their stock ticker name. The allstocks5yr.csv contains the same data, presented in a merged .csv file. 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

Acknowledgements Due to volatility in google finance, for the newest version I have switched over to acquiring the data from The Investor's Exchange api, the simple script I use to do this is found here. Special thanks to Kaggle, Github, pandas_datareader and The Market.

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!

Actual value and historical data chart for United States Stock Market Return Percent Year On Year

Throughout the 1920s, prices on the U.S. stock exchange rose exponentially, however, by the end of the decade, uncontrolled growth and a stock market propped up by speculation and borrowed money proved unsustainable, resulting in the Wall Street Crash of October 1929. This set a chain of events in motion that led to economic collapse - banks demanded repayment of debts, the property market crashed, and people stopped spending as unemployment rose. Within a year the country was in the midst of an economic depression, and the economy continued on a downward trend until late-1932.

It was during this time where Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR) was elected president, and he assumed office in March 1933 - through a series of economic reforms and New Deal policies, the economy began to recover. Stock prices fluctuated at more sustainable levels over the next decades, and developments were in line with overall economic development, rather than the uncontrolled growth seen in the 1920s. Overall, it took over 25 years for the Dow Jones value to reach its pre-Crash peak.
