  • Help! Merge Compustat Security Daily and Worldscope Annual

    Dear Statalister,

    I would like to ask how to merge Compustat security daily data and Worldscope annual data together? Because Worldscope do not include fyear, so I not sure how to merge them together. I need to use prccd in Compustat to calculate the realised return and Tobin's q, but I also need 'Accounting Standard Followed' in Worldscope.

    How can I merge the Worldscope Fundamental Annual, Worldscope Stock Data and Compustat Security Daily dataset together? Because Compustat is daily data and Worldscope is annual data, but I want my dataset to be annual data. Can I ask how to merge these 3 dataset into annual data, please? Thank you.

    STATA Code:
    gen year=yofd(datadate)
    format year %ty
    merge m:m isin using Document1.dta

    How can I collapse daily data into annual data?

    STATA Code:
    collapse (mean) average_price=PRCCD, by(ISIN)

    or
    bysort isin datadate: egen ave=mean(prccd)

    Help would very appreciated.

    Kind regards,

    Tiantian Peng
