If you haven't done so already, load all files in ctsdata.20140211.tar (link on the left) into Oracle or PostgreSQL (or whichever works for you; postgresql recommended!). The format of these files is: cts(date,symbol,open,high,low,close,volume), splits(date,symbol,post,pre), dividend(date,symbol,dividend). Submit (email) whatever commands/files you used to load the data into whatever database you're using, as well as the raw space usage of the tables in your database. (this was part of previous homework).

After loading the data, create another table DAILY_PRCNT, with fields: TDATE,SYMBOL,PRCNT which will have the daily percentage gain/loss adjusted for dividends and splits.

Do NOT write procedural code (Java, C#, C/C++, etc.) for this homework (all code must be SQL, etc.).

HINT: MSFT (Microsoft) on 2004-11-12 closed at 29.97.
They issued a dividend of 3.08, with ex-dividend date of 2004-11-15. Meaning anyone who buys the stock on-or-after 2004-11-15 is NOT entitled to the dividned.
On 2004-11-12 it was $29.97 equity, by morning 2004-11-15 it turned into (26.89 equity + 3.08 cash). When markets closed on 2004-11-15 at 27.39, the gain was from 26.89 to 27.39.
(preclose - dividend) * (1+r) = close
(29.97 - 3.08)*(1+r) = 27.39
r = (27.39/(29.97 - 3.08))-1 = 0.018594
or 1.8594% daily gain.
Can test: (29.97 - 3.08) * (1+0.018594) = 27.390, which matches closing price on 2004-11-15.
HINT: splits, MSFT did a 1 to 2 split on 2003-02-18. During a split, each share of a company gets turned into several shares of lower value each. The total value held by investors is not changed.
Closing price on 2003-02-14 is 48.30
Closing price on 2003-02-18 is 24.96
On 2003-02-14 it was 48.30 stock, by morning 2003-02-18 it turned into 2 * 24.150 equity (total value still 48.30).
(prevclose * pre/post) * (1+r) = close
(48.30 * 1/2) * (1+r) = 24.96
The dain/loss is caluclated from 24.15 (value after split) to 24.96 (closing price on 2003-02-18).
r = (24.96 / (48.30 * 1/2))-1 = 0.033540
or 3.3540% daily gain.
Can test: (48.30 * 1/2) * (1+ 0.033540) = 24.96
Loss is just a negative percentage.

Submit query used to construct the DAILY_PRCNT table (e.g. "create table DAILY_PRCNT as select ..."). We'll do more stuff with this DAILY_PRCNT dataset in subsequent homeworks---so don't put it off and get it done on time.



Ans: create table DAILY_PRCNT as (
        select a.* / (sum over (partition by tdate, symbol)) * 100 prcnt
        from DAILY_PRCNT
        where tdate = '2003-02-14' , '2003-02-18', '2004-11-12', '2004-11-15'
        order by 1,2,3
     )
