S&P 500 Stock Data - Exploratory Data Analysis
Overview
This project presents an exploratory data analysis (EDA) of daily stock data for S&P 500 companies.
The analysis focuses on sector composition, volatility patterns, and the relationship between risk and return in the S&P 500 universe.
Dataset Description
The analysis combines two public datasets:
- Price Data: Daily prices (open, high, low, close, volume, symbol) for S&P 500 companies, covering a 5-year period (~620,000 rows).
- Constituents Data: Sector information for each company, based on the latest S&P 500 constituents list.
The datasets were merged by stock symbol so that each row contains both price history and sector.
Main Research Questions
- What percentage of S&P 500 stocks belong to each sector?
- Which sector in the S&P 500 is the most volatile?
- Within the most volatile sector, which stocks are the most volatile?
- Is there a relationship between risk (volatility) and average return for S&P 500 stocks?
Data Cleaning & Preparation
- Checked and removed duplicate rows.
- Excluded records with missing or invalid dates, closing prices, or stock symbols.
- Converted date fields to datetime for accurate time series analysis.
- Sorted entries by stock and date.
- Merged sector information from the constituents dataset.
- Calculated daily returns and stock volatility (standard deviation of daily returns).
Exploratory Analysis & Key Insights
1. Sector Composition
The pie chart shows that Information Technology, Health Care, and Financials are the largest sectors by number of companies, while sectors like Utilities and Materials are less represented in the S&P 500.
2. Sector Volatility
The bar chart reveals that the Energy sector has the highest average volatility among all sectors, indicating that Energy stocks experience the largest daily price fluctuations.
3. Most Volatile Stocks in the Most Volatile Sector
The ranking plot shows that in the Energy sector, WMB (Williams Companies) is the most volatile stock, with a volatility level noticeably higher than all others. DVN and OKE follow, but with lower volatility. The difference between WMB and the rest is especially significant.
4. Risk vs. Return
The scatter plot with regression line suggests a weak positive relationship between risk and return: stocks with higher volatility tend to have slightly higher average daily returns, but the overall trend is not strong.
Outlier Handling
Outliers in daily returns were identified using the IQR method. Since these outliers represent actual market events and not errors, they were retained in the analysis.
Limitations
- Sectoral shares were based on company counts rather than market capitalization, as Market Cap was not available.
- The analysis did not include dividends, macroeconomic events, or company fundamentals.
- Results are based on historical price and volume data only.
Conclusion
The EDA uncovers important patterns in sector distribution, volatility, and the risk-return relationship across the S&P 500. It highlights both broad trends and unique behaviors within specific sectors and stocks.
Video Presentation
