nyse

Description

Wooldridge Source: These are Wednesday closing prices of value-weighted NYSE average, available in many publications. I do not recall the particular source I used when I collected these data at MIT. Probably the easiest way to get similar data is to go to the NYSE web site, www.nyse.com. Data loads lazily.

Usage

data('nyse')

Format

• price: NYSE stock price index

• return: 100*(p - p(-1))/p(-1))

• price_2:

• cprice_1: lagged cprice
