Show HN: Time-series data of mutual funds open sourced for First time in India
- utkarshohm 9y agoI built and operated a mutual fund investing platform in India as a licensed distributor. I used this data to analyse and visualise mutual funds. The finance industry wants 'exclusive access to data' to be a competitive advantage. I believe that, on the contrary, data should be universally accessible and differentiation in product or distribution could be the barriers. This is why I am open-sourcing all the data I collected.
- samblr 9y agoA blog post on technicalities of analysing this data would be really useful.
- utkarshohm 9y agoSure. That would make the data more useful too. Will do it. Thanks for the suggestion.
- anilgulecha 9y agoThanks for this! The description says data is compressed, but I can see it's all uncompressed CSVs. Question: Do you update CSVs automatically at intervals? Is this data considered public domain, as it's recording facts?
- nautical 9y agoHi ! Can you tell a little bit more about the data sources and how they were collected ? If someone wants to keep updating the data ?
