Which stock(s) beat the market in 2022?

Based on the results that are showed above, in 2022, the following stocks beat the market: AAPL, PG, and NVDA.

A bar plot to visualize the results

# Create a bar plot of skewness
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(RaRb_skewness, aes(x = symbol, y = skewness_Ra, fill = symbol)) +
  geom_bar(stat = "identity", position = "dodge", show.legend = FALSE) +
  labs(x = "Stock", y = "Skewness", title = "Skewness of Returns") +
  theme_minimal()

Stocks that had a positively skewed distribution of returns:

# Filter stocks with positive skewness and get distinct symbols
positive_skew_stocks <- RaRb_skewness %>%
  filter(skewness_Ra > 0) %>%
  distinct(symbol)
