While browsing a variety of websites, I repeatedly observed significant fluctuations in the same financial metric among different sources. Similarly, the reported financial statements often didn’t line up, and there was limited information on the methodology used to calculate each metric.

For example, Microsoft’s Price-to-Earnings (PE) ratio on the 6th of May, 2023 is reported to be 28.93 (Stockopedia), 32.05 (Morningstar), 32.66 (Macrotrends), 33.09 (Finance Charts), 33.66 (Y Charts), 33.67 (Wall Street Journal), 33.80 (Yahoo Finance) and 34.4 (Companies Market Cap). All of these calculations are correct, however the method of calculation varies leading to different results. Therefore, collecting data from multiple sources can lead to wrong interpretation of the results given that one source could apply a different definition than another. And that is, if that definition is even available as often the underlying methods are hidden behind a paid subscription.

This is why I designed the FinanceToolkit, this is an open-source toolkit in which all relevant financial ratios (150+), indicators and performance measurements are written down in the most simplistic way allowing for complete transparency of the method of calculation (proof). This enables you to avoid dependence on metrics from other providers that do not provide their methods. With a large selection of financial statements in hand, it facilitates streamlined calculations, promoting the adoption of a consistent and universally understood methods and formulas.

The Finance Toolkit not only supports Equities. Even for Options, Currencies, Cryptocurrencies, ETFs, Mutual Funds, Indices, Money Markets, Commodities, Key Economic Indicators and more, the Finance Toolkit can be used to obtain historical data as well as important performance and risk measurements such as the Sharpe Ratio and Value at Risk.

The Finance Toolkit is complimented very well with the Finance Database 🌎, a database that features 300.000+ symbols containing Equities, ETFs, Funds, Indices, Currencies, Cryptocurrencies and Money Markets. By utilising both, it is possible to do a fully-fledged competitive analysis with the tickers found from the FinanceDatabase inputted into the FinanceToolkit.

To install the FinanceToolkit it simply requires the following:

pip install financetoolkit -U

Then within Python use:

from financetoolkit import Toolkit

companies = Toolkit(
    tickers=['GOOGL', 'MSFT', 'AMZN'],
    api_key="FINANCIAL_MODELING_PREP_KEY",
)

To be able to get started, you need to obtain an API Key from FinancialModelingPrep. This is used to gain access to 30+ years of financial statement both annually and quarterly. Note that the Free plan is limited to 250 requests each day, 5 years of data and only features companies listed on US exchanges.


Obtain an API Key from FinancialModelingPrep here.


Through the link you are able to subscribe for the free plan and also premium plans at a 15% discount. This is an affiliate link and thus supports the project at the same time. I have chosen FinancialModelingPrep as a source as I find it to be the most transparent, reliable and at an affordable price. I have yet to find a platform offering such low prices for the amount of data offered. When you notice that the data is inaccurate or have any other issue related to the data, note that I simply provide the means to access this data and I am not responsible for the accuracy of the data itself. For this, use their contact form or provide the data yourself.

The dependencies of the package are on purpose very slim so that it will work well with any combination of packages and not result in conflicts.

Basic Usage

This section is an introduction to the Finance Toolkit. Also see this notebook for a detailed Getting Started guide as well as this notebook that includes the Finance Database 🌎 and a proper financial analysis. Next to that, find below a fully-fledged code documentation as well as Jupyter Notebooks in which you can see many examples ranging from basic examples to creating custom ratios to working with your own datasets.


Find a variety of How-To Guides including Code Documentation for the FinanceToolkit here.


A basic example of how to use the Finance Toolkit is shown below.

from financetoolkit import Toolkit

companies = Toolkit(["AAPL", "MSFT"], api_key=API_KEY, start_date="2017-12-31")

# a Historical example
historical_data = companies.get_historical_data()

# a Financial Statement example
income_statement = companies.get_income_statement()

# a Ratios example
profitability_ratios = companies.ratios.collect_profitability_ratios()

# a Models example
extended_dupont_analysis = companies.models.get_extended_dupont_analysis()

# an Options example
all_greeks = companies.options.collect_all_greeks(expiration_time_range=180)

# a Performance example
factor_asset_correlations = companies.performance.get_factor_asset_correlations(
    period="quarterly"
)

# a Risk example
value_at_risk = companies.risk.get_value_at_risk(period="weekly")

# a Technical example
ichimoku_cloud = companies.technicals.get_ichimoku_cloud()

# an Economics example
unemployment_rates = companies.economics.get_unemployment_rate()

Generally, the functions return a DataFrame with a multi-index in which all tickers, in this case Apple and Microsoft, are presented. To keep things manageable for this README, I select just Apple but in essence the list of tickers can be endless as I’ve seen DataFrames with thousands of tickers. The filtering is done through .loc['AAPL'] and .xs('AAPL', level=1, axis=1) based on whether it’s fundamental data or historical data respectively.

Obtaining Historical Data

Obtain historical data on a daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis. This includes OHLC, volumes, dividends, returns, cumulative returns and volatility calculations for each corresponding period. For example, the a portion of the historical data for Apple is shown below.

date Open High Low Close Adj Close Volume Dividends Return Volatility Excess Return Excess Volatility Cumulative Return

And below each component of the Extended Dupont Analysis is plotted including the resulting Return on Equity (ROE).

Models

Obtaining Options and Greeks

Get the Black Scholes Model for both call and put options including the relevant Greeks, in this case Delta, Gamma, Theta and Vega. This can be any of the First, Second or Third Order Greeks as found in the the options module. The get_ functions show a single Greek whereas the collect_ functions show an aggregation of Greeks. For example, see the delta of the Call options for Apple for multiple expiration times and strike prices below (Stock Price: 185.92, Volatility: 31.59%, Dividend Yield: 0.49% and Risk Free Rate: 3.95%):

1 Month 2 Months 3 Months 4 Months 5 Months 6 Months
175 0.7686 0.7178 0.6967 0.6857 0.6794 0.6759

Which can also be plotted together with Gamma, Theta and Vega as follows:

Greeks

Obtaining Performance Metrics

Get the correlations with the factors as defined by Fama-and-French. These include market, size, value, operating profitability and investment. The beauty of all functionality here is that it can be based on any period as the function accepts the period intraday, weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly. For example, this shows the quarterly correlations for Apple:

Mkt-RF SMB HML RMW CMA
2022Q2 0.9177 -0.1248 -0.5077 -0.3202 -0.2624
2022Q3 0.8092 0.1528 -0.5046 -0.1997 -0.5231
2022Q4 0.8998 0.2309 -0.5968 -0.1868 -0.5946
2023Q1 0.7737 0.1606 -0.3775 -0.228 -0.5707
2023Q2 0.7416 -0.1166 -0.2722 0.0093 -0.4745

And below the correlations with each factor are plotted over time for both Apple and Microsoft.

Performance

Obtaining Risk Metrics

Get the Value at Risk for each week. Here, the days within each week are considered for the Value at Risk. This makes it so that you can understand within each period what is the expected Value at Risk (VaR) which can again be any period but also based on distributions such as Historical, Gaussian, Student-t, Cornish-Fisher.

And below the Ichimoku Cloud parameters are plotted for Apple and Microsoft side-by-side.

Technicals

Understanding Key Economic Indicators

Get insights for 60+ countries into key economic indicators such as the Consumer Price Index (CPI), Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Unemployment Rates and 3-month and 10-year Government Interest Rates. This is done through the economics module and can be used as a standalone module as well by using from financetoolkit import Economics. For example see a selection of the countries below:

Colombia United States Sweden Japan Germany
2017 0.093 0.0435 0.0686 0.0281 0.0357
2018 0.0953 0.039 0.0648 0.0244 0.0321

Core Functionality and Metrics

The Finance Toolkit has the ability to collect 30+ years of financial statements and calculate 150+ financial metrics. The following list shows all of the available functionality and metrics.

Each ratio and indicator has a corresponding function that can be called directly for example ratios.get_return_on_equity or technicals.get_relative_strength_index. However, there are also functions that collect multiple ratios or indicators at once such as ratios.collect_profitability_ratios. These functions are useful when you want to collect a large amount of ratios or indicators at once.


Find a variety of How-To Guides including Code Documentation for the FinanceToolkit here.


Core Functionality

These are the core functionalities of the Finance Toolkit. For any calculation, it often first collects data via these functions. For example, financial ratios require the financial statements and historical data which are obtained through the Toolkit without needing to specify this first.

Financial Statements

Acquire a full history of both annual and quarterly financial statements, including balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow statements.

These financial statements are adjusted for the following reasons:

  • The financial statements are automatically standardized (based on these files to allow for the ability to enter any type of dataset given that the names used are what all of the functionalities rely on.
  • The fiscal year of each company is automatically converted to the calendar year so that all companies can be compared on the same basis. As an example, Apple’s Q4 2023 is related to the period July 2023 until September 2023 which corresponds to Q3 2023. This means that in the Finance Toolkit these results are reported in the Q3 2023 column.
  • When convert_currency=True (automatically enabled with a Premium FMP plan) the currency of the historical data is compared to the currency of the financial statements. If they do not match, the financial statement data is converted to the currency of the historical data. This is done to ensure that calculations such as the Price-to-Earnings Ratio (PE) have both the Share Price and Earnings denoted in the same currency.

To get insights related to the reported currency, CIK ID and SEC Links, it is possible to retrieve a statististics statement as well.

As an example:

from financetoolkit import Toolkit

toolkit = Toolkit(["MSFT", "MU"], api_key="FINANCIAL_MODELING_PREP_KEY", quarterly=True, start_date='2022-05-01')

balance_sheet_statements = toolkit.get_balance_sheet_statement()

balance_sheet_statements.loc['MU']

Which returns:

(Intraday) Historical Market Data

Obtain historical market data for the specified tickers. This contains the following columns:

  • Open: The opening price for the period.
  • High: The highest price for the period.
  • Low: The lowest price for the period.
  • Close: The closing price for the period.
  • Adj Close: The adjusted closing price for the period.
  • Volume: The volume for the period.
  • Dividends: The dividends for the period.
  • Return: The return for the period.
  • Volatility: The volatility for the period.
  • Excess Return: The excess return for the period. This is defined as the return minus the a predefined risk free rate. Only calculated when excess_return is True.
  • Excess Volatility: The excess volatility for the period. This is defined as the volatility of the excess return. Only calculated when excess_return is True.
  • Cumulative Return: The cumulative return for the period.

If a benchmark ticker is selected, it also calculates the benchmark ticker together with the results. By default this is set to “SPY” (S&P 500 Index) but can be any ticker. This is relevant for calculations for models such as CAPM, Alpha and Beta.

Important to note is that when an api_key is included in the Toolkit initialization that the data collection defaults to FinancialModelingPrep which is a more stable source and utilises your subscription. However, if this is undesired, it can be disabled by setting historical_source to YahooFinance. If data collection fails from FinancialModelingPrep it automatically reverts back to YahooFinance.

You are able to specify the period which can be daily (default), weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly.

As an example:

from financetoolkit import Toolkit

toolkit = Toolkit("AAPL", api_key="FINANCIAL_MODELING_PREP_KEY")

toolkit.get_historical_data(period="yearly")

Treasury Rates

Just like the historical market data, obtain a full history for the treasury rates which also serve as risk-free rate by default allowing for calculations such as the Sharpe Ratio. This also includes normalization of the data as well as auto-adjustments for missing values. It can also be obtained from both FinancialModelingPrep and Yahoo Finance.

It returns the following columns:

  • 13 Week Treasury Bond
  • 5 Year Treasury Bond
  • 10 Year Treasury Bond

ESG Scores

ESG scores, which stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance scores, are a crucial metric used by investors and organizations to assess a company’s sustainability and ethical practices. These scores provide valuable insights into a company’s performance in three key areas:

  • Environmental (E): The environmental component evaluates a company’s impact on the planet and its efforts to mitigate environmental risks. It includes factors like carbon emissions, energy efficiency, water management, and waste reduction. A high environmental score indicates a company’s commitment to eco-friendly practices and reducing its ecological footprint.
  • Social (S): The social component focuses on how a company interacts with its employees, customers, suppliers, and the communities in which it operates. Key factors in the social score include labor practices, diversity and inclusion, human rights, product safety, and community engagement. A strong social score reflects a company’s dedication to fostering positive relationships and contributing positively to society.
  • Governance (G): Governance examines a company’s internal structures, policies, and leadership. It assesses aspects such as board independence, executive compensation, transparency, and the presence of anti-corruption measures. A high governance score signifies strong leadership and a commitment to maintaining high ethical standards and accountability

ESG scores provide investors with a holistic view of a company’s sustainability and ethical practices, allowing them to make more informed investment decisions. These scores are increasingly used to identify socially responsible investments and guide capital towards companies that prioritize long-term sustainability and responsible business practices. As the importance of ESG considerations continues to grow, companies are motivated to improve their ESG scores, not only for ethical reasons but also to attract investors who value sustainable and responsible business practices.

As an example:

from financetoolkit import Toolkit

)

esg_scores = toolkit.get_esg_scores()

esg_scores.xs("MSFT", level=1, axis=1)

Which returns:

Screen stocks, obtain a list of companies, quotes, floating shares, sectors performance, biggest gainers, biggest losers, most active stocks and delisted companies.

Search Instruments

The search instruments function allows you to search for a company or financial instrument by name. It returns a dataframe with all the symbols that match the query. Find the documentation here.

As an example:

from financetoolkit import Discovery

discovery = Discovery(api_key="FINANCIAL_MODELING_PREP_KEY")

discovery.search_instruments(query='META')

Which returns:

Symbol Name Currency Exchange Exchange Code

Stock Screener

Screen stocks based on a set of criteria. This can be useful to find companies that match a specific criteria or your analysis. Further filtering can be done by utilising the Finance Toolkit and calculating the relevant ratios to filter by. This can be:

  • Market capitalization (market_cap_higher, market_cap_lower)
  • Price (price_higher, price_lower)
  • Beta (beta_higher, beta_lower)
  • Volume (volume_higher, volume_lower)
  • Dividend (dividend_higher, dividend_lower)

Note that the limit is 1000 companies. Thus if you hit the 1000, it is recommended to narrow down your search to prevent companies from being excluded simply because of this limit. Find the documentation here.

As an example:

from financetoolkit import Discovery

discovery = Discovery(api_key="FINANCIAL_MODELING_PREP_KEY")

discovery.get_stock_screener(
    market_cap_higher=1000000,
    market_cap_lower=200000000000,
    price_higher=100,
    price_lower=200,
    beta_higher=1,
    beta_lower=1.5,
    volume_higher=100000,

Financial Ratios

The Ratios Module contains over 50+ ratios that can be used to analyse companies. These ratios are divided into 5 categories which are efficiency, liquidity, profitability, solvency and valuation. Each ratio is calculated using the data from the Toolkit module. Find the Notebook here and the documentation here which includes an explanation about the ratio, the parameters and an example.

It is also possible to define custom ratios and calculate these automatically based on the balance sheet, income and cash flow statements. With this, it is possible to calculate any collection of custom ratios without needing to understanding the backend of the Finance Toolkit. Learn how here.

All of these ratios can be calculated based on (lagged) growth as well as trailing (e.g. TTM) metrics. This is embedded in all ratios as well as the financial statements themselves which means it is possible to calculate revenue growth and 12-month (TTM) Price-to-Earnings with the parameters growth=True and trailing=4 respectively. Note that trailing is based on periods therefore TTM can only be calculated by setting quarterly=True in the Toolkit initialization.

Efficiency Ratios ⚙️

The efficiency ratios are used to assess how well a company utilizes its assets and liabilities to generate revenue. They provide insight into the company’s operational efficiency and its ability to manage its assets and liabilities.

All ratios can be called by using get_ or collect_ to get a single ratio or to obtain all ratios of the category respectively. E.g. get_asset_turnover_ratio or collect_efficiency_ratios. As an example:

from financetoolkit import Toolkit

toolkit = Toolkit(["AAPL", "TSLA"], api_key="FINANCIAL_MODELING_PREP_KEY")

The Black Scholes Model is a mathematical model used to estimate the price of European-style options. It is widely used by traders and investors to determine the theoretical value of an option, and to assess the potential risks and rewards of a position.

Within Risk Management, defining the theoretical value of an option is important to assess the potential risk and rewards of an option position. A position that could be used to hedge a portfolio, for example, is a long put option. The theoretical value of this option can be used to determine the potential risk and rewards of this position.

The Black Scholes Model is based on several assumptions, including the following:

  • The option is European and can only be exercised at expiration.
  • The underlying stock follows a lognormal distribution.
  • The risk-free rate and volatility of the underlying stock are known and constant.
  • The returns on the underlying stock are normally distributed.

Find the documentation here.

Implied Volatility (IV) is a measure of how much the market expects the price of the underlying asset to fluctuate in the future. It is a key component of options pricing and can also be used to calculate the theoretical value of an option. It makes it possible to plot the Volatility Smile for each company and each expiration date as seen below. Find the documentation here.

Volatility Smile

Binomial Option Pricing Model

The Binomial Option Pricing Model is a mathematical model used to estimate the price of European and American style options.

toolkit.options.collect_second_order_greeks()

# Get an Individual Greek
toolkit.options.get_gamma()

Gamma

The gamma is the rate of change of the delta with respect to the price of the underlying asset. The Gamma can be interpreted as follows:

  • If Gamma is high, it indicates that the option’s Delta is highly sensitive to changes in the underlying asset’s price. The option’s Delta will change more significantly with small movements in the stock price.
  • If Gamma is low, it suggests that the option’s Delta is relatively insensitive to changes in the underlying asset’s price. The option’s Delta changes more gradually with movements in the stock price.

Performance Metrics

The Performance module is meant to calculate important performance metrics such as Sharpe Ratio, Sortino Ratio, Treynor Ratio, Information Ratio, Jensen’s Alpha, Beta, Capital Asset Pricing Model, Factor Models and more. Find the Notebook here and the documentation here which includes an explanation about the performance metrics, the parameters and an example.

Performance Metrics

The performance metrics are used to assess the performance of a portfolio or investment strategy. They provide insights into the risk-adjusted returns of a portfolio or investment strategy, and can be used to compare the performance of different assets or investment strategies.

All performance metrics can be called by using get_ to get a single metric. E.g. get_alpha or get_beta. As an example:

from financetoolkit import Toolkit

toolkit = Toolkit(["AAPL", "TSLA"], api_key="FINANCIAL_MODELING_PREP_KEY")

# Get Performance Metric Results
toolkit.performance.get_beta()

Beta

Beta is a financial metric used to assess the systematic risk of a stock or investment in relation to the overall market. It provides valuable insights into how a particular asset’s returns tend to move in response to fluctuations in the broader market. A stock’s Beta is calculated by analyzing its historical price movements and their correlation with the movements of a market index, typically the benchmark index like the S&P 500. Find the documentation here.

Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)

CAPM, or the Capital Asset Pricing Model, is a financial model used to estimate the expected return on an investment, such as a stock or portfolio of stocks. It provides a framework for evaluating the risk and return trade-off of an asset or portfolio in relation to the overall market. CAPM is based on the following key components:

  • Risk-Free Rate (Rf): This is the theoretical return an investor could earn from an investment with no risk of financial loss. It is typically based on the yield of a government bond.
  • Market Risk Premium (Rm- Rf): This represents the additional return that investors expect to earn for taking on the risk of investing in the overall market as opposed to a risk-free asset. It is calculated as the difference between the expected return of the market (Rm) and the risk-free rate (Rf).
  • Beta (β): Beta is a measure of an asset’s or portfolio’s sensitivity to market movements. It quantifies how much an asset’s returns are expected to move in relation to changes in the overall market. A beta of 1 indicates that the asset moves in line with the market, while a beta greater than 1 suggests higher volatility, and a beta less than 1 indicates lower volatility.

The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is a widely used financial model that helps in determining the expected return of an asset or portfolio based on its systematic risk and the prevailing risk-free rate in the market. CAPM provides insights into how an asset or investment should be priced in order to offer an appropriate rate of return, given its level of risk compared to the overall market. Find the documentation here.

Factor Asset Correlations

Finds factor exposures for each asset. The major difference between the Fama and French Model here is that the correlation is taken as opposed to a Linear Regression in which the R-squared or Slope can be used to understand the exposure to each factor. For assessing the exposure or influence of a stock to external factors, it’s often preferable to use R-squared (R²) or Beta because it explicitly measures how well the factors explain the stock’s returns. A higher R² indicates that the stock’s returns are more closely related to the factors, and thus, the factors have a greater influence on the stock’s performance. Find the documentation here.

Factor Correlations

Calculates factor correlations between each factor. This is useful to understand how correlated each factor is to each other. This is based off the Fama and French 5 Factor model which includes:

  • Market Risk Premium (Mkt-RF): Represents the additional return that investors expect to earn for taking on the risk of investing in the overall market as opposed to a risk-free asset.
  • Size Premium (SMB): Reflects the historical excess return of small-cap stocks over large-cap stocks.
  • Value Premium (HML): Captures the historical excess return of value stocks over growth stocks.
  • Profitability (RMW): Measures the historical excess return of high profitability stocks over low profitability stocks.
  • Investment (CMA): Quantifies the historical excess return of low investment stocks over high investment stocks.

Optionally, it is also possible to see the correlation between the risk-free rate and each factor. Find the documentation here.

Fama-French 5 Factor Model (FF)

The Fama and French 5 Factor model is a widely used financial model that helps estimate the expected return of financial assets, such as stocks or portfolios, based on five key factors:

  • Market Risk Premium (Mkt-RF): Represents the additional return that investors expect to earn for taking on the risk of investing in the overall market as opposed to a risk-free asset.
  • Size Premium (SMB): Reflects the historical excess return of small-cap stocks over large-cap stocks.
  • Value Premium (HML): Captures the historical excess return of value stocks over growth stocks.
  • Profitability (RMW): Measures the historical excess return of high profitability stocks over low profitability stocks.
  • Investment (CMA): Quantifies the historical excess return of low investment stocks over high investment stocks.

The model can perform both a Simple Linear Regression on each factor as well as a Multi Linear Regression which includes all factors. Generally, a multi linear regression is applied but if you wish to see individual R-squared values for each factor you can select the simple linear regression method. Find the documentation here.

Alpha

Alpha, in a general sense, represents the excess return an investment generates relative to a benchmark or a risk-adjusted return. It can be positive (indicating the investment outperformed the benchmark) or negative (indicating underperformance). Find the documentation here.

Skewness is a crucial tool for investors and analysts seeking to understand the potential risk and return characteristics of an investment, aiding in the assessment of the distribution’s tails and potential outliers. It provides a means to gauge the level of skew in returns, enabling more informed investment decisions and risk management strategies. Find the documentation here.

Kurtosis

Kurtosis is a statistical measure used in finance to evaluate the shape of the probability distribution of returns for an investment portfolio or asset over a defined time period. It assesses the “tailedness” of the return distribution, indicating whether returns have fatter or thinner tails compared to a normal distribution. Kurtosis plays a critical role in risk assessment by revealing the potential presence of extreme outliers or the likelihood of heavy tails in the return data. This information aids investors and analysts in understanding the degree of risk associated with an investment and assists in making more informed decisions regarding risk tolerance. In essence, kurtosis serves as a valuable tool for comprehending the distribution characteristics of returns, offering insights into the potential for rare but significant events in the financial markets.

Gross Domestic Product (GDP)

The Gross Domestic Product is the total value of goods produced and services provided in a country during one year. The data is available in two forms: compared to the previous year’s value or compared to the previous period. The year on year data is the GDP compared to the same quarter in the previous year. The quarter on quarter data is the GDP compared to the previous quarter. Find the documentation here.

It is possible to view the growth rate on a quarterly or annual basis, the default is dependent on the quarterly parameter. The growth rate is the percentage change in the GDP compared to the previous period. Find the documentation here.

Lastly, it is possible to view the growth rate on a quarterly or annual basis, the default is dependent on the quarterly parameter. The growth rate is the percentage change in the GDP compared to the previous period. Find the documentation here.

Consumer Confidence Index (CCI)

This consumer confidence indicator provides an indication of future developments of households consumption and saving, based upon answers regarding their expected financial situation, their sentiment about the general economic situation, unemployment and capability of savings.

An indicator above 100 signals a boost in the consumers’ confidence towards the future economic situation, as a consequence of which they are less prone to save, and more inclined to spend money on major purchases in the next 12 months. Values below 100 indicate a pessimistic attitude towards future developments in the economy, possibly resulting in a tendency to save more and consume less. Find the documentation here.

Business Confidence Index (BCI)

This business confidence indicator provides information on future developments, based upon opinion surveys on developments in production, orders and stocks of finished goods in the industry sector. It can be used to monitor output growth and to anticipate turning points in economic activity.

Numbers above 100 suggest an increased confidence in near future business performance, and numbers below 100 indicate pessimism towards future performance. Find the documentation here.

Composite Leading Indicator (CLI)

The composite leading indicator (CLI) is designed to provide early signals of turning points in business cycles showing fluctuation of the economic activity around its long term potential level. CLIs show short-term economic movements in qualitative rather than quantitative terms. Find the documentation here.

Consumer Price Index (CPI)

Inflation measured by consumer price index (CPI) is defined as the change in the prices of a basket of goods and services that are typically purchased by specific groups of households. Inflation is measured in terms an index, 2015 base year with a breakdown for food, energy and total.

Inflation measures the erosion of living standards. A consumer price index is estimated as a series of summary measures of the period-to-period proportional change in the prices of a fixed set of consumer goods and services of constant quantity and characteristics, acquired, used or paid for by the reference population.

Each summary measure is constructed as a weighted average of a large number of elementary aggregate indices. Each of the elementary aggregate indices is estimated using a sample of prices for a defined set of goods and services obtained in, or by residents of, a specific region from a given set of outlets or other sources of consumption goods and services. Find the documentation here.

Producer Price Index (PPI)

Producer price indices in manufacturing measure the rate of change in prices of products sold as they leave the producer. They exclude any taxes, transport and trade margins that the purchaser may have to pay. PPIs provide measures of average movements of prices received by the producers of various commodities. hey are often seen as advanced indicators of price changes throughout the economy, including changes in the prices of consumer goods and services.

Manufacturing covers the production of semi-processed goods and other intermediate goods as well as final products such as consumer goods and capital equipment. A variety of price indices may be used to measure inflation in an economy. These include consumer price indices (CPI), price indices relating to specific goods and/or services, GDP deflators and producer price indices (PPI). Find the documentation here.

House Prices

In most cases, the nominal house price index covers the sales of newly-built and existing dwellings, following the recommendations from the RPPI (Residential Property Prices Indices) manual.

The real house price index is given by the ratio of the nominal house price index to the consumers’ expenditure deflator in each country from the OECD national accounts database. Both indices are seasonally adjusted. Find the documentation here.

Rent Prices

The price to rent ratio is the nominal house price index divided by the housing rent price index and can be considered as a measure of the profitability of house ownership. Find the documentation here.

Share Prices

Share price indices are calculated from the prices of common shares of companies traded on national or foreign stock exchanges. They are usually determined by the stock exchange, using the closing daily values for the monthly data, and normally expressed as simple arithmetic averages of the daily data.

A share price index measures how the value of the stocks in the index is changing, a share return index tells the investor what their “return” is, meaning how much money they would make as a result of investing in that basket of shares.

A price index measures changes in the market capitalisation of the basket of shares in the index whereas a return index adds on to the price index the value of dividend payments, assuming they are re-invested in the same stocks. Occasionally agencies such as central banks will compile share indices. Find the documentation here.

Finance 💹

Long Term Interest Rates (10 year)

Long-term interest rates refer to government bonds maturing in ten years. Rates are mainly determined by the price charged by the lender, the risk from the borrower and the fall in the capital value. Long-term interest rates are generally averages of daily rates, measured as a percentage. These interest rates are implied by the prices at which the government bonds are traded on financial markets, not the interest rates at which the loans were issued.

In all cases, they refer to bonds whose capital repayment is guaranteed by governments. Long-term interest rates are one of the determinants of business investment. Low long term interest rates encourage investment in new equipment and high interest rates discourage it. Investment is, in turn, a major source of economic growth. Find the documentation here.

Short Term Interest Rates (3 month)

Short-term interest rates are the rates at which short-term borrowings are effected between financial institutions or the rate at which short-term government paper is issued or traded in the market. Short-term interest rates are generally averages of daily rates, measured as a percentage.

Short-term interest rates are based on three-month money market rates where available. Typical standardised names are “money market rate” and “treasury bill rate”. Find the documentation here.

Option-Adjusted Spread (OAS)

The Option-Adjusted Spread (OAS) is the spread relative to a risk-free interest rate, usually measured in basis points (bp), that equates the theoretical present value of a series of uncertain cash flows to the market price of a fixed-income investment. The spread is added to the risk-free rate to compensate for the uncertainty of the cash flows. Find the documentation here.

Effective Yield

The Effective Yield is the yield of a bond, calculated by dividing the bond’s coupon payments by its market price. The effective yield is not the same as the stated yield, which is the yield on the bond’s coupon payments divided by the bond’s principal value. The effective yield is a more accurate measure of a bond’s return, as it takes into account the fact that the investor will not hold the bond to maturity and will likely sell it before it matures. Find the documentation here.

Total Return

The total return is the actual rate of return of an investment or a pool of investments over a given evaluation period. Total return includes interest, capital gains, dividends and distributions realized over a given period of time. Find the documentation here.

Yield to Worst

Yield to worst is the lowest potential yield that a bond can generate without the issuer defaulting. The standard US convention for this series is to use semi-annual coupon payments, whereas the standard in the foreign markets is to use coupon payments with frequencies of annual, semi-annual, quarterly, and monthly. Find the documentation here.

Municipal waste comprises wastes produced by the residential, commercial and public service sectors that are collected by local authorities for disposal in a central location for the production of heat and/or power. Find the documentation here.

Environmental Tax as % of GDP

Environmentally related taxes are an important instrument for governments to shape relative prices of goods and services.

The characteristics of such taxes included in the database (e.g. revenue, tax base, tax rates, exemptions, etc.) are used to construct the environmentally related tax revenues with a breakdown by environmental domain:

  • Energy products (including vehicle fuels);
  • Motor vehicles and transport services;
  • Measured or estimated emissions to air and water, ozone depleting substances, certain non-point sources of water pollution, waste management and noise, as well as management of water, land, soil, forests, biodiversity, wildlife and fish stocks.

The data have been cross-validated and complemented with Revenue statistics from the OECD Tax statistics database and official national sources. Find the documentation here.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Greenhouse gases refer to the sum of seven gases that have direct effects on climate change:

  • Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
  • Methane (CH4)
  • Nitrous Oxide (N2O)
  • Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
  • Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)
  • Perfluorocarbons (PFCs)
  • Sulphur Hexafluoride (SF6)
  • Nitrogen Trifluoride (NF3).

The data are expressed in CO2 equivalents and refer to gross direct emissions from human activities. CO2 refers to gross direct emissions from fuel combustion only and data are provided by the International Energy Agency. Other air emissions include emissions of sulphur oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) given as quantities of SO2 and NO2, emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), and emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC), excluding methane.

Air and greenhouse gas emissions are measured in tonnes per capita and kilogram per capita in which all metrics are converted to tonnes (1000kg) per capita. Find the documentation here.

Crude Oil Production

Crude oil production is defined as the quantities of oil extracted from the ground after the removal of inert matter or impurities. It includes crude oil, natural gas liquids (NGLs) and additives. This indicator is measured in thousand tonne of oil equivalent (toe).

Crude oil is a mineral oil consisting of a mixture of hydrocarbons of natural origin, yellow to black in colour, and of variable density and viscosity. NGLs are the liquid or liquefied hydrocarbons produced in the manufacture, purification and stabilisation of natural gas.

Additives are non-hydrocarbon substances added to or blended with a product to modify its properties, for example, to improve its combustion characteristics (e.g. MTBE and tetraethyl lead). Refinery production refers to the output of secondary oil products from an oil refinery. Find the documentation here.

Crude Oil Prices

Crude oil import prices come from the IEA’s Crude Oil Import Register and are influenced not only by traditional movements of supply and demand, but also by other factors such as geopolitics.

Information is collected from national agencies according to the type of crude oil, by geographic origin and by quality of crude. Average prices are obtained by dividing value by volume as recorded by customs administrations for each tariff position.

Values are recorded at the time of import and include cost, insurance and freight, but exclude import duties. The nominal crude oil spot price from 2003 to 2011 is for Dubai and from 1970 to 2002 for Arabian Light. This indicator is measured in USD per barrel of oil. Find the documentation here.

Government 🏛️

The government metrics revolve around the deficit, revenue, spending, debt, financial wealth and production costs of countries. This includes the deficit as a percentage of GDP, revenue as a percentage of GDP, spending as a percentage of GDP, debt as a percentage of GDP, financial wealth as a percentage of GDP and production costs as a percentage of GDP.

All government metrics can be called by using get_ to get a single metric. E.g. get_government_statistics or get_trust_in_government. As an example:

from financetoolkit import Toolkit

toolkit = Toolkit(["AAPL", "TSLA"], api_key="FINANCIAL_MODELING_PREP_KEY")

# Get Government Results
toolkit.economics.get_government_statistics()

Deficit as % of GDP

General government deficit is defined as the balance of income and expenditure of government, including capital income and capital expenditures. “Net lending” means that government has a surplus, and is providing financial resources to other sectors, while “net borrowing” means that government has a deficit, and requires financial resources from other sectors. Find the documentation here.

Revenue as % of GDP

General government revenue is defined as the revenue required to finance the goods and services they provide to citizens and businesses, and to fulfil their redistributive role. Comparing levels of government revenues across countries provides an indication of the importance of the government sector in the economy in terms of available financial resources. The total amount of revenues collected by governments is determined by past and current political decisions. Find the documentation here.

Spending as % of GDP

General government spending is defined as an indicator of the size of government across countries. The large variation in this indicator highlights the variety of countries’ approaches to delivering public goods and services and providing social protection, not necessarily differences in resources spent. Find the documentation here.

Debt as % of GDP

General government debt-to-GDP ratio measures the gross debt of the general government as a percentage of GDP. It is a key indicator for the sustainability of government finance. Debt is calculated as the sum of the following liability categories (as applicable): currency and deposits; debt securities, loans; insurance, pensions and standardised guarantee schemes, and other accounts payable. Changes in government debt over time primarily reflect the impact of past government deficits. Find the documentation here.

Financial Wealth as % of GDP

The net financial worth of the general government sector is the total value of its financial assets minus the total value of its outstanding liabilities. The general government sector consists of central, state and local governments as well as social security funds. Find the documentation here.

Production Costs as % of GDP

General government production costs are decisions about the amount and type of goods and services governments produce, as well as on how best to produce them. They are often political in nature and based on a country’s social and cultural context. Governments use a mix of their own employees, capital, and outside contractors (non-profit institutions or private sector entities) to produce goods and services. Government production costs include: compensation costs of general government employees; goods and services used and financed by general government (including intermediate consumption and social transfer in kind via market producers paid for by government); and other costs, including depreciation of capital and other taxes on production less other subsidies on production. The data include government employment and intermediate consumption for output produced by the government for its own use, such as roads and other capital investment projects built by government employees. Find the documentation here.

Central Government Spending

Central government expenditure is defined as the central government budget expenditure as reported in the final central government accounts. Data are based on the System of National accounts (SNA), a set of internationally agreed concepts, definitions, classifications and rules for national accounting. Central government spending by function is the breakdown of expenditures on the basis of the activities governments support. The classification system used to provide this breakdown on an internationally comparable basis is known as Classification of Functions of Government (COFOG). Find the documentation here.

Trust in Government

Trust in government refers to the share of people who report having confidence in the national government. The data shown reflect the share of respondents answering “yes” (the other response categories being “no”, and “dont know”) to the survey question: “In this country, do you have confidence in… national government? The sample is ex ante designed to be nationally representative of the population aged 15 and over. This indicator is measured as a percentage of all survey respondents. Find the documentation here.

Jobs 🗂️

The jobs metrics revolve around the unemployment rates, labour productivity and income inequality of countries.

All jobs metrics can be called by using get_ to get a single metric. E.g. get_unemployment_rate or get_income_inequality. As an example:

from financetoolkit import Toolkit

toolkit = Toolkit(["AAPL", "TSLA"], api_key="FINANCIAL_MODELING_PREP_KEY")

# Get Jobs Results
toolkit.economics.get_income_inequality()

Unemployment Rate

The unemployed are people of working age who are without work, are available for work, and have taken specific steps to find work. The uniform application of this definition results in estimates of unemployment rates that are more internationally comparable than estimates based on national definitions of unemployment.

This indicator is measured in numbers of unemployed people as a percentage of the labour force and it is seasonally adjusted. The labour force is defined as the total number of unemployed people plus those in employment. Data are based on labour force surveys (LFS).

For European Union countries where monthly LFS information is not available, the monthly unemployed figures are estimated by Eurostat. Find the documentation here.

Labour Productivity

GDP per hour worked is a measure of labour productivity. It measures how efficiently labour input is combined with other factors of production and used in the production process. Labour input is defined as total hours worked of all persons engaged in production. Labour productivity only partially reflects the productivity of labour in terms of the personal capacities of workers or the intensity of their effort.

The ratio between the output measure and the labour input depends to a large degree on the presence and/or use of other inputs (e.g. capital, intermediate inputs, technical, organisational and efficiency change, economies of scale). Find the documentation here.

Income Inequality

Income is defined as household disposable income in a particular year. It consists of earnings, self-employment and capital income and public cash transfers; income taxes and social security contributions paid by households are deducted. The income of the household is attributed to each of its members, with an adjustment to reflect differences in needs for households of different sizes. Income inequality among individuals is measured here by five indicators. Find the documentation here.

Society 👪

The society metrics revolve around the population, young population, working age population, elderly population, fertility rates, old-age dependency ratio and poverty rate of countries.

All society metrics can be called by using get_ to get a single metric. E.g. get_population_statistics or get_poverty_rate. As an example:

from financetoolkit import Toolkit

toolkit = Toolkit(["AAPL", "TSLA"], api_key="FINANCIAL_MODELING_PREP_KEY")

# Get Society Results
toolkit.economics.get_poverty_rate()

Population

Population is defined as all nationals present in, or temporarily absent from a country, and aliens permanently settled in a country. This indicator shows the number of people that usually live in an area. Growth rates are the annual changes in population resulting from births, deaths and net migration during the year. Find the documentation here.

Young Population

The youth population is defined as those people aged less than 15 as a percentage of the total population. Find the documentation here.

Working Age Population

The working age population is defined as those aged 15 to 64 as a percentage of the total population. Find the documentation here.

Elderly Population

The elderly population is defined as those aged 65 and over as a percentage of the total population. Find the documentation here.

Fertility Rates

The total fertility rate in a specific year is defined as the total number of children that would be born to each woman if she were to live to the end of her child-bearing years and give birth to children in alignment with the prevailing age-specific fertility rates. Find the documentation here.

Old-Age Dependency Ratio

The old-age to working-age demographic ratio is defined as the number of individuals aged 65 and over per 100 people of working age defined as those at ages 20 to 64. Find the documentation here.

Poverty Rate

The poverty rate is the ratio of the number of people (in a given age group) whose income falls below the poverty line; taken as half the median household income of the total population.

It is also available by broad age group:

  • child poverty (0 to 17 year-olds);
  • working-age poverty (18 to 65 year-olds);
  • and elderly poverty (66 year-olds or more).

However, two countries with the same poverty rates may differ in terms of the relative income-level of the poor. Find the documentation here.

Questions & Answers

This section includes frequently asked questions and is meant to clear up confusion about certain results and/or deviations from other sources. If you have any questions that are not answered here, feel free to reach out to me via the contact details below.

How do you deal with companies that have different fiscal years?

For any financial statement, I make sure to line it up with the corresponding calendar period. For example, Apple’s Q4 2023 relates to July to September of 2023. This corresponds to the calendar period Q3 which is why I normalize Apple’s numbers to Q3 2023 instead. This is done to allow for comparison between companies that have different fiscal years.

Why do the numbers in the financial statements sometimes deviate from the data from FinancialModelingPrep?

When looking at a company such as Hyundai Motor Company (ticker: 005380.KS), you will notice that the financial statements are reported in KRW (South Korean won). As this specific ticker is listed on the Korean Exchange, the historical market data will also be reported in KRW. However, if you use the ticker HYMTF, which is listed on the American OTC market, the historical market data will be reported in USD. To deal with this discrepancy, the end of year or end of quarter exchange rate is retrieved which is used to convert the financial statements to USD. This is done to prevent ratio calculations such as the Free Cash Flow Yield (which is based on the market capitalization) or Price Earnings Ratio (which is based on the stock price) from being incorrect. This can be disabled by setting convert_currency=False in the Toolkit initialization. It is recommended to always use the ticker that is listed on the exchange where the company is based.

How can I get TTM (Trailing Twelve Months) and Growth metrics?

Most functions will have the option to define the trailing parameter. This lets you define the number of periods that you want to use to calculate the trailing metrics. For example, if you want to calculate the trailing 12-month (TTM) Price-to-Earnings Ratio, you can set trailing=4 when you have set quarterly=True in the Toolkit initialization. The same goes for growth metrics which can be calculated by setting growth=True. This will calculate the growth for each period based on the previous period. This also includes a lag parameter in which you can define lagged growth. Furthermore, you can also combine the trailing and growth parameters to get trailing growth. For example, set trailing=4 and growth=True for the Price-to-Earnings Ratio which will then calculate the TTM growth.

How can I save the data periodically so that I don’t have to retrieve it every single time again?

The Toolkit initialization has the ability to add custom datasets which can serve as input for external datasets from different providers but also to prevent downloading all of the same data again. Have a look at this comment that explains this further.

What is the “Benchmark” that is automatically obtained when acquiring historical data?

This is related to the benchmark_ticker parameter which is set to “SPY” (S&P 500) by default. This is important when calculating performance metrics such as the Sharpe Ratio or Treynor Ratio that require a market return. This can be disabled by setting benchmark_ticker=None in the Toolkit initialization.

Data collection seems to be slow, what could be the issue?

Generally, it should take less than 15 seconds to retrieve the historical data of 100 tickers. If it takes much longer, this could be due to reaching the API limit (the Starter plan has 250 requests per minute), due to a slow internet connection or due to unoptimized code. As the Finance Toolkit makes use of threading, initializing the Toolkit with a single ticker will result in a slow process. This is because the Toolkit will have to wait for the previous request to finish before it can start the next one. Therefore, it is recommended to initialize the Toolkit with all tickers you want to analyze. If it is taking 10+ minutes consider having a look at this issue that managed to resolve the problem.

Are you part of FinancialModelingPrep?

No, I am not. I’ve merely picked them as the primary data provider given that they have a generous free tier and fair pricing compared to other providers. Therefore, any questions related to the data should go through their contact form. When it comes to any type of ratios, performance metrics, risk metrics, technical indicators or economic indicators, feel free to reach out to me as this is my own work.

The goal of the Finance Toolkit is to make any type of financial calculation as transparent and efficient as possible. I want to make these type of calculations as accessible to anyone as possible and seeing how many websites exists that do the same thing (but instead you have to pay) gave me plenty of reasons to work on this.
