Quiver Quantitative Alternative Data

Project description

Quiver Quantitative Alternative Data

This package allows you to access several alternative data sources which are updated daily and mapped to tickers. These include:

  • Trading by US congressmen
  • Corporate Lobbying

  • Companies' Wikipedia page views
  • Discussion on Reddit's r/wallstreetbets
  • Discussion on Reddit's r/SPACs
  • Companies' Twitter followings
  • Flights by corporate private jets
  • Political Beta

This data can be used for backtesting and implementing trading strategies.
