OpenPM-Bench
Auditable, point-in-time evaluation data for LLM portfolio-management agents.
OpenPM-Bench is the dataset behind OpenPM, a benchmark for the question "can an LLM manage a stock portfolio?" A trading agent sees only point-in-time, leakage-controlled information for the S&P 500 — the names that were actually in the index on each decision date — and proposes target weights, which are backtested bar-by-bar on a 5-minute price panel.

What's in it
A single content-hashed freeze (FREEZE_MANIFEST.json, dataset_sha256 89e154ae…,
1,376 data files, ≈47 GB) of 508 point-in-time S&P 500 members active on at least one
date between 2026-02-19 and 2026-05-01. The evaluation window is 2026-03-02 → 2026-05-01
(44 trading days, 3,432 five-minute bars per name). The data is 2026-dated, after the knowledge
cutoff of most evaluated model backbones.
Every record carries an availability timestamp (ts_available); a field is visible at decision
time T only if its stamp ≤ T. Future-looking labels are held out in a separate, agent-invisible
layer.

How much do you need?
The full release is ≈47 GB, but ~39 GB of that is raw/ — provenance archives needed only to
rebuild the dataset from source. To run the full benchmark, download everything except raw/
(≈8 GB):
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
# Run the benchmark (~8 GB) — all derived layers, skip the raw provenance archives:
path = snapshot_download("aslcai/OpenPM-Bench", repo_type="dataset", ignore_patterns=["raw/*"])
# Full release (~47 GB, incl. raw/ to rebuild from source):
# path = snapshot_download("aslcai/OpenPM-Bench", repo_type="dataset")
This is a multi-layer parquet/NDJSON dataset, not a single table — read the layers directly with
pandas/pyarrow, or use the OpenPM code (see the repo) to run an agent. Download all derived layers,
not a subset: the flagship agent's filings_meta / filings_body analysts read events/, and a
missing layer silently degrades those channels rather than erroring.
