Price Quotations in Early United States Securities Markets, 1790-1860 (ICPSR 4053)
Released/updated on: 2005-08-24
Geographic coverage: United States, England, United Kingdom, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, New York City, Charleston (South Carolina), Baltimore, Massachusetts, Louisiana, London, New Orleans, Alexandria, Virginia, Maryland, Philadelphia, Boston, Norfolk, Richmond
Time period: 1790-01-01--1860-01-01
The dataset is a compilation of prices of public securities (equities and bonds) traded in nine United States securities markets and in London during the period between the United States Revolutionary and Civil Wars. The data were gathered by scanning early United States periodicals chronicling the period from 1786-1862. The data were concentrated on what were termed "runs" of securities quotations broken down by days, weeks, or months for each of the ten cities in the data set. Runs are series of bids and offer quotes for different securities and maturities. Within each part (market), the data were divided by issuer sectors or types. There may be some redundancy in the data, because when there was doubt about categorizing similar issues under a key code they were categorized under separate codes.

Stock Market Returns, Volatility, and Future Output (ICPSR 1269)
Released/updated on: 2003-04-18
Geographic coverage: United States
In this article, the author shows that, if stock volatility follows an AR(1) process, stock market returns relate positively to past volatility but relate negatively to contemporaneous volatility in Merton's (1973) Intertemporal Capital Asset Pricing Model. The model helps explain the recent finding that stock market volatility drives out returns in forecasting real gross domestic product growth because the predictive power of returns is hampered by their positive correlation with past volatility. If the positive relation between returns and past volatility is controlled for, however, the author finds that volatility provides no additional information beyond returns in forecasting output in the post-World War II sample.
