Tech Stock Prices

This dataset consists of the daily stock prices and volume of ten different tech companies: Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN), Alibaba (BABA), Salesforce (CRM), Facebook (FB), Alphabet (GOOG), Intel (INTC), Microsoft (MSFT), Nvidia (NVDA), and Tesla (TSLA).

There are ten CSV files in the data/ folder named with the stock symbol for each of the ten companies listed above. Other companies can be downloaded from Yahoo Finance and uploaded into the workspace.

Using techniques learnt from the 'Data Manipulation with Pandas' course, the first thing I did was to transfer the csv file to the pandas dataframe using AAPL=pd.read_csv("data/AAPL.csv") as an example for Apple, followed by inspecting the dataframe using:

.info() shows information on each of the columns, such as the data type and number of missing values.

.describe() calculates a few summary statistics for each column (Apple is below)

.head() returns the first few rows (the “head” of the DataFrame).

.tail() returns the last few rows (the “tail” of the DataFrame).

I then subsetted the Adj Close column for further analysis later on, and also extracted the mean, max and min Closing Prices using Apple as an example below:

print(AAPL["Adj Close"].mean()) print(AAPL["Adj Close"].max()) print(AAPL["Adj Close"].min())

40.01715128142714 165.300003 5.880607

I then created a simple line chart using:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

AAPL.plot(x="Date", y="Adj Close", kind ="line", title="Apple Stock Performance")

Plotting returns from closing prices:

Create daily_return

AAPL['daily_return'] = AAPL.Close.pct_change().mul(100)

Create monthly_return

AAPL['monthly_return'] = AAPL.Close.pct_change(30).mul(100)

Create annual_return

AAPL['annual_return'] = AAPL.Close.pct_change(360).mul(100)

Plot the result

AAPL.plot(subplots=True) plt.show()
