Advanced Access using WRDS Server

• Take advantage of local storage of filings and

index datasets with PC-SAS or UNIX-SAS

• Use PERL or SAS regular expression

capabilities to parse thousands of filings and

build custom-tailored data sets in one step

• WRDS Research Macros are standardized

and well-documented SAS programs that can

be modified and invoked in one line

• Effective, transparent and extensible SAS

codes, including:

o LineParse: Line-by-Line parser that

preserves tabular format.

o TextParse: Parses out the match line

& a pre-specified number of preceding

characters.

o ParaParse: Extracts a paragraph with

pre-specified number of lines around a

string.

Introducing CIK link tables

• CIK link tables are datasets that map CIK to all historical company legal

names, CUSIP numbers, and other identification information

o WCIKLINK_NAMES lists of all company names for a given CIK

o WCIKLINK_CUSIP maps a CIK to all CUSIPs that appear in a

company‟s filings

o WCIKLINK_GVKEY maps between GVKEY and „Historical‟ CIKs

• Helps retain historical records for companies that are undergoing

restructuring and who are more likely to change their CIK filing number

o Essential tool for when you want to track all historical filings for public

companies

o Researchers use GVKEY-CIK historical maps to avoid selection and

survivorship bias concerns

New TAQ Datasets

• Provide Daily TAQ feed with Millisecond timestamps

• Quote datasets are growing exponentially in size due to algorithmic trading and continuous changes to the prevailing quote.

o 1 year of data in 1993: 11GB

o 1 year of data in 2010: 9,475GB (851 X)

• WRDS decided to generate New Datasets of the following:

o NBBO Quotes at the end of each second for all stocks

o Merged Trades/Quotes Datasets: for each trade add the prevailing NBBO quote information at second -5, -2, -1, and 0, relative to the trade time

• WRDS will provide the SAS codes for:

o NBBO Quote generation macro

o Lee and Ready (1991) algorithm

o Daily Buy/Sell Imbalances

o Matching TAQ Symbol to CRSP Permno

NBBO Research Application • Regulation NMS – National Market System: calculate National Inside Quote from valid

quotes across various exchanges: Best Bid (BB), Best Offer (BO), Size at BB, Size at BO

• Quote Rule: http://www.sec.gov/answers/trdexbd.htm o best price at which a market maker is willing to trade

o a prevailing quote of an exchange is the most recent valid quote from that

exchange

o every new quote by an exchange supersedes its previous prevailing quote

• NBBO calculation every second because of TAQ Monthly feed time stamp granularity

• Evaluation of accuracy of WRDS NBBO algorithm:

o Minimize the percentage of locks and crosses within an NBBO

o Maximize the percentage of Inside Trades

• SAS Code: WRDS Research Applications

o Invocation: %nbbo (yyyymmdd=20080606, outset=myfile);

• Evaluation of execution speed of WRDS NBBO algorithm SAS Macro on WRDS server

o To create a 1998 NBBO daily dataset for all Stocks: 26 seconds

Lee and Ready Research Application • Use NBBO instead of the Exchange-Specific Quote, in the Quote Test

• Do not aggregate the trades within the same second: apply quote test and tick test to

individual trades independently.

• Have for each trade the quotes at the end of:

o -5 and -2 seconds: Lee and Ready (1991) original 5 second rule, or later findings

on -2 seconds delay

o -1 second: ie. choose the

prevailing quote at the

beginning of the second during which the trade

occurred.

o 0 second: ie. choose the quote at the end of the

second during which the

trade occurred.

Linking TAQ and CRSP Data

• Linking without a primary identifier: Define a primary identifier, first o “TICKER SYMBOL – VINTAGE DATE” as a primary identifier

o Use CUSIP as primary linking identifier then add ticker matches

o TCLINK.SAS Macro to create TCLINK link-table between TAQ Ticker Symbols and PERMNO

• Invoke TAQ-CRSP Linking Macro in one line within code: %tclink(BEGDATE=199301,ENDDATE=201012,OUTSET=home.tclink);

• Flag matches and provide link accuracy metrics

• Efficient Coding that highlight best practices and runs on the fly (automatic

Potential research venues using CIQ CIQ Capital structure database can help to shed more light on question like

How financial contracting between different stakeholders helps explain both cross-

sectional and time-series variation in leverage ratios

Better understanding of which debt components contribute most (least) to the speed and

nature of adjustment towards target leverage

How amount of total debt changes when various types of debt have differential expected

costs of distress

Refine our understanding of the relationship between asset liquidity, liquidation,

tangibility, profitability and leverage for different types of debt (Rauh and Sufi, 2010)

Do firms engage in debt specialization, i.e., do firms rely on only one type of debt

financing or use multiple sources of debt and how this decision is affected by firm ratings

(Colla et al., “Debt Structure” & “Debt Specialization”, 2009, 2010)
