Indexes Time Series

rb3 downloads data from B3 website to build time series for B3 indexes.

The function rb3::index_get downloads data from B3 for the given index name and returns data structured in a data.frame. The index names are obtained with rb3::indexes_get function.

index_name <- "IBOV"
index_data <- index_get(index_name, as.Date("2019-01-01"))
head(index_data)
#> # A tibble: 6 × 3
#>   refdate    index_name   value
#>   <date>     <chr>        <dbl>
#> 1 2019-02-01 IBOV        97861.
#> 2 2019-03-01 IBOV        94604.
#> 3 2019-04-01 IBOV        96054.
#> 4 2019-07-01 IBOV       101340.
#> 5 2019-08-01 IBOV       102126.
#> 6 2019-10-01 IBOV       104053.

The returned data.frame has three columns: refdate, index_name and value.

index_data |>
  ggplot(aes(x = refdate, y = value)) +
  geom_line() +
  labs(
    x = NULL, y = "Index",
    title = str_glue("{index_name} Historical Data"),
    caption = str_glue("Data imported using rb3")
  )

The IBOVESPA index starts at 1968 and the series is adjusted for all economic events the that affected the Brazilian currency in the 80-90’s decades.

index_data <- index_get(index_name, as.Date("1968-01-01"))
index_data |>
  ggplot(aes(x = refdate, y = value)) +
  geom_line() +
  scale_y_log10() +
  labs(
    x = NULL, y = "Index (log scale)",
    title = str_glue("{index_name} Historical Data - since 1968"),
    caption = str_glue("Data imported using rb3")
  )

The y-axis was transformed to log scale in order to get the visualization improved.

Change index_name to get data for other indexes, for example, the Small Caps Index SMLL.

index_name <- "SMLL"
index_data <- index_get(index_name, as.Date("2010-01-01"))
index_data |>
  ggplot(aes(x = refdate, y = value)) +
  geom_line() +
  labs(
    x = NULL, y = "Index",
    title = str_glue("{index_name} Historical Data"),
    caption = str_glue("Data imported using rb3")
  )

Indexes Last Update

rb3::indexes_last_update returns the date where the indexes have been last updated.
