skfolio.descriptor.IssuanceGrowthRate#

class skfolio.descriptor.IssuanceGrowthRate(lag=252)[source]#

Issuance growth rate descriptor.

Computes period-over-period growth in split-adjusted shares outstanding:

\[\text{issuance\_growth}(t) = \frac{\text{adj\_shares\_outstanding}(t)} {\text{adj\_shares\_outstanding}(t - \text{lag})} - 1\]

The first lag observations are NaN because no lagged history is available.

adj_shares_outstanding must contain non-missing finite non-negative values. NaNs are allowed as missing observations and propagate when either the current or lagged value is missing. Zero values are allowed and a zero lagged value makes the growth rate undefined and produces NaN.

Positive issuance growth indicates an increase in split-adjusted shares outstanding. Net share issuance is a negative predictor of future returns, independent of size, value and momentum [1].

This is a convenience subclass of GrowthRate with field="adj_shares_outstanding".

Parameters:
lagint, default=252

Number of observations to look back. The interpretation depends on the data frequency: lag=12 means 1 year for monthly data, lag=252 for daily data, lag=4 for quarterly data.

Attributes:
n_assets_int

Number of assets seen during fitting.

asset_names_ndarray of shape (n_assets,)

Asset names seen during fitting.

growth_rate_ndarray of shape (n_assets,)

Last issuance growth value for each asset.

get_params([deep])

fit_transform(X, y=None, **fit_params)#

Compute simple growth rates of the configured field.

Parameters:
XAssetPanel

Input panel containing the field characteristic configured at construction.

yNone

Ignored. Present for compatibility with scikit-learn’s API.

**fit_paramsdict

Additional fit parameters. Ignored.

Returns:
growth_ratendarray of shape (n_observations, n_assets)

Period-over-period growth rate for each observation and asset.

get_metadata_routing()#

Get metadata routing of this object.

Please check User Guide on how the routing mechanism works.

Returns:
routingMetadataRequest

A MetadataRequest encapsulating routing information.

get_params(deep=True)#

Get parameters for this estimator.

Parameters:
deepbool, default=True

If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.

Returns:
paramsdict

Parameter names mapped to their values.

partial_fit_transform(X, y=None, **fit_params)#

Compute simple growth rates of the configured field.

This method supports online updates by continuing from the current fitted state. Use fit_transform to start from a clean state.

Parameters:
XAssetPanel

Input panel containing the field characteristic configured at construction.

yNone

Ignored. Present for compatibility with scikit-learn’s API.

**fit_paramsdict

Additional fit parameters. Ignored.

Returns:
growth_ratendarray of shape (n_observations, n_assets)

Period-over-period growth rate for each observation and asset.

set_params(**params)#

Set the parameters of this estimator.

The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects (such as Pipeline). The latter have parameters of the form <component>__<parameter> so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.

Parameters:
**paramsdict

Estimator parameters.

Returns:
selfestimator instance

Estimator instance.
