Create a Correlation Table with financial data

Posted 10 years ago

Hello,

I am just discovering wolfram alpha and i do not know how to programme so this will be basic but I have not seen the question so I decided to ask it myself. I think that the creation table could be useful for finance. There is an exemple of a correlation table with wolfram programming: http://reference.wolfram.com/language/example/CreateACorrelationTable.html.

  1. Firstly, there is a need to choose financial members usch as the members of a stock index (nasdaq,...). This could be similar to the exemple (Get the members of the G8: In Click for copyable input Out[1]= ) but with the companies of a financial index. Is it possible to select the members of the DJIA or the NASAD?

  2. Then the second step is to play with the characteritics of these members (capitalisation, PERRatio,...).

Has someone tried this already? Otherwise, is there a way to produce an automatical financial analysis of a stock with wolfram alpha?

Thanks. I hope that it will also be useful to others people.

Are you using Wolfram|Alpha or Mathematica? I can't tell.

The example at reference.wolfram.com is for Mathematica. You can't exactly program with Wolfram|Alpha.

  1. There are a number of different ways to get the members of an index. FinancialData can pull this information from Yahoo Finance in many cases. For example the members of NASAQ can be obtained with FinancialData["NASDAQ", "Members"]. Sometimes you can get this list from a wolframalpha query.
