What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates extraction and integration of WRDS data (Compustat and CRSP) into ready-to-analyze panel datasets, reducing manual data wrangling and saving researchers time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated data pulls: Retrieve quarterly Compustat and CRSP data from WRDS with caching to speed up repeated analyses.
  • Linking and validation: Uses linking tables to align records across databases, performs date-range validation, and reports data quality.
  • End-to-end workflows: Orchestrates pulling, merging, cleaning, and optional variable construction (e.g., financial ratios) for panel studies.
  • Use Case: A researcher needs a quarter-by-quarter panel of firm fundamentals and stock returns; this Skill builds the dataset and provides diagnostics.

Quick Start

Run the WRDS data-pull pipeline to generate a cleaned, merged Compustat-CRSP dataset and validate it with panel diagnostics.
