# # US Equities — Exploratory Data Analysis
#
# **Docker image**: `ml4t`
#
# ## Purpose
#
# Profile the **US equities panel**: its schema, its price conventions, and — the part
# that decides whether it can carry a backtest — the shape of its coverage through time.
#
# The panel is sourced from the legacy Quandl WIKI end-of-day file: community-maintained,
# free, and discontinued in March 2018. That provenance is not trivia. It determines what
# the panel can and cannot tell us, and this notebook's job is to find out which.
#
# ## Learning objectives
#
# - Load the panel via `data.load_us_equities` and inspect its canonical schema.
# - Distinguish raw from split/dividend-adjusted price columns.
# - Chart how many symbols the panel covers in each year, and when symbols enter and leave it.
# - Read the coverage chart as evidence about the *data collection process*, not about the market.
# - Check OHLC invariants and null rates across the full panel.
#
# ## How this notebook relates to `15_survivorship_bias_detection`
#
# This notebook establishes **what is in the file**. It ends by surfacing one anomaly in the
# coverage record that it deliberately does not resolve.
#
# `15_survivorship_bias_detection` picks that anomaly up and asks the follow-on question:
# *given what the panel records about symbols that leave it, how wrong is a backtest that
# ignores them?* Read this one first; it is the shorter one, and it sets up the problem.
#
# ## Book reference
#
# §2.2, "The asset-class market data landscape" - the equities part of it.
#
# ## Prerequisites
#
# `data` package on `PYTHONPATH`; the panel's parquet present at
# `ML4T_DATA_PATH/equities/market/us_equities/`. Run
# `python data/equities/market/us_equities/download.py` if missing.

# ### Raw versus adjusted prices
#
# This panel carries **both** price conventions. Which one you reach for is not a
# style preference — it changes the numbers.
#
# | Column type | Columns | Use for |
# |---|---|---|
# | Raw | `open`, `high`, `low`, `close`, `volume` | Analysis at actually traded price levels |
# | Adjusted | `adj_open`, `adj_high`, `adj_low`, `adj_close`, `adj_volume` | Return calculations and backtesting |
#
# The adjusted columns are meant to absorb splits and dividends so that a return computed
# across a corporate action is a return an investor could have earned. Use `adj_*` for
# returns; use the raw columns when you need the price a trade would have printed at.
#
# The panel also ships the two corporate-action inputs themselves, `ex-dividend` and
# `split_ratio`, which is what lets `02_corporate_actions` verify the adjustment on a
# worked example rather than take it on trust. That check passes on AAPL. It does not
# pass everywhere — see `15_survivorship_bias_detection` §3.

# ## 3. Coverage through time
#
# The cross-section above says how many symbols the panel holds *in total*. It says nothing
# about **when**. The same total is consistent with every symbol being quoted in every year,
# and with a universe that grows and shrinks as firms list and delist. Those are different
# datasets and only one of them can carry a backtest.
#
# Two views answer this:
#
# - **Universe size** — how many distinct symbols are quoted in each calendar year.
# - **Entries and exits** — how many symbols record their *first* observation in each year,
#   and how many record their *last*.
#
# For a panel tracking a real equity market, both flows should run continuously: firms IPO
# every year, and firms are acquired or fail every year.

# ## 4. What the exit record actually shows
#
# Entries run continuously from 1962. Exits do not: **the panel records no symbol leaving
# before 2014.**
#
# Firms plainly did exit before 2014 — they were acquired, they went bankrupt, they went
# private. Enron delisted in 2002. What the chart shows is therefore not a fact about the
# equity market. It is a fact about the file: **exit information was not being captured until
# roughly 2014, and started being captured around then.**
#
# This is the tax on free, community-maintained data. The panel was assembled from the
# symbols that existed when the project ran, each backfilled to its own IPO. Symbols that had
# already died were never added, so their disappearance was never recorded. From 2014 the
# panel is live, so symbols leaving it *are* recorded. Both flows then decay as contributors
# drift away, until the feed stops in March 2018.
#
# What follows for a backtest:
#
# - Before 2014 the panel holds **only firms that survived to 2014**. A 1990s backtest run on
#   it will not see a single failure, because none are there to see.
# - From 2014 the panel does record exits, and can support survivorship-aware work.
# - The absence of exits before 2014 is **absence of evidence**, not evidence that nothing
#   left. We do not know what left. The panel cannot tell us.

# %% [markdown] tags=[]
# ## Key takeaways
#
# - **Profile the coverage before profiling the rows.** Nulls and OHLC invariants ask whether
#   each observation is internally consistent. Survivorship is a property of which rows exist
#   at all, and no within-row check can raise a symbol that was never written to the file.
# - **Plot both flows, not the total.** A count of symbols per year and a count of first and
#   last observations per year answer different questions, and it is the second that showed
#   the exit record switching on partway through the sample. The total is consistent with
#   either dataset.
# - **A discontinuity in a data-collection record is not a market event.** Firms were acquired
#   and did fail throughout this history; the panel simply did not record it until collection
#   went live. Read a break in coverage as a fact about the file first, and look for the
#   collection mechanism that produced it.
# - **Absence of exits is absence of evidence.** For the years before the record starts, this
#   panel cannot say which symbols left, so it cannot say how wrong a backtest run on it would
#   be. That is a stronger statement than "the bias is small", and a weaker one than any number.
# - **Say which price convention a number came from.** Raw prices are what a trade would have
#   printed at; the adjusted columns are what a return should be computed on. The panel carries
#   both, and the two disagree across every split and dividend.
#
# **Known limitations.** The panel is the discontinued Quandl WIKI file, so it stops in 2018
# and nothing here extends past it. Symbols are identified by ticker, which is reused after a
# delisting, so a long history under one ticker is not proof of one continuous company. And the
# adjustment columns are taken on trust in this notebook: `02_corporate_actions` checks them on
# a worked example, and `15_survivorship_bias_detection` finds where the check fails.
#
# **Next**: `02_corporate_actions` validates the adjustment factors behind the `adj_*` columns
# on a worked example. `15_survivorship_bias_detection` takes the coverage finding and asks how
# much a backtest that ignores the leavers gets wrong. **Book reference**: §2.2.
