Some Sirca members may have noticed the new addition to the Sirca Product Portal recently. The Data Library is a recent addition to help facilitate access to our smaller and less complex datasets that do not require a tailor made user interface. The Data Library is a flexible way for us to add future collections of files that customers can download readily.
The Core Research Database (CRD) is the first inclusion through this portal. The CRD was previously encrypted and accessible through a separate login that wasn’t widely available. It can now be accessed using your regular Sirca login.
The CRD contains historical daily trading information including total volume, value and number of trades, and the high, low and close price for each stock listed on the ASX, including dilution information. This data is available from mid-1983 to the present. Members are able to manipulate this data in any manner that they wish to conduct research. E.g. Daily returns can be calculated from the information provided.
Please contact us if you would like more information.
