Context

The motive behind collecting this dataset is to provide a historical data for all Saudi stocks, where you can build your own predictive models in the hope of making millions of SARs.

Content

The dataset was collected using Selenium on Python from Tadawul. For some stocks, the website can go back until 2001. The stocks vary in their starting time period but end on March 19, 2020, the day in which the dataset was collected.

Acknowledgements

The dataset was generated to satisfy requirements for General Assembly Data Science Immersive Program.

Inspiration

Few things might be interesting to investigate:

1. How does the Saudi stock market react to international trends?
2. What would be the best time of the year/month to invest? Are there any periodic trends?
3. Who are the top gainers/losers in the past year/decade?
4. Are there any "rising-stars" in terms of trading volume/value?

Limitation

The dataset only gives information about daily trends (opening, closing, change, etc.) Unfortunately, the information about hourly prices cannot be found on Tadawul website.
