By Lucas Amunategui and Manuel Amunategui

The goal of this little book is to help you find your way around the chaotic world of the financial markets. Stop trusting other people's opinions and make your own. Here are tools to explore the markets and find answers to your fundamental stock-market questions.We'll start with the S&P 500, my favorite index and the world's economic barometer. This powerful and telling index comprise some 80% of all equity market value in the US and 30% of its revenue comes from outside the United States. It is also the benchmark against which all other financial products are measured. Most chapters in this book will use this index in one form or another. We'll continue by exploring the VIX, the Yield Curve, the Case-Shiller Home Price Index, the Consumer Price Index and much more. This book assumes that you have some Python experience, a working interpreter on your computer and the basics of operating a Jupyter notebook. I will show you in simple terms where to find market data, how to prepare it and visualize it using Python and Jupyter notebooks. You will find a link at the beginning of each chapter to access the source code and a paragraph explaining where and how to download the required market data.You won't find trading setups or financial advice here. This is exactly what this book isn't about. Instead, you will acquire a simple set of scripts and data sources to explore, learn and build anything you want.
