I have two tables that i want to join(in terms of symbol and date(only the YEAR have to match!!)) and store in a new_table, is that possible?
expected result:
symbol date 1 value 1 date 2 value 2
"A" "2010-12-31" "29.635193133" "2010-01-05" "22.324748927"
1.
symbol date value_1
"A" "2010-12-31" "29.635193133"
"A" "2011-12-30" "24.985693133"
"A" "2012-12-31" "29.284693133"
"AAL" "2010-12-31" "10.01"
"AAL" "2011-12-30" "5.07"
and 2.
symbol date value_2
"A" "2010-01-05" "22.324748927"
"A" "2011-01-05" "29.5135915594"
"AAL" "2012-01-05" "5.15"
"AAL" "2015-01-05" "54.369999"
There are probably more issues to resolve, but here is a solution:
create table table3 as
select *
from table1
inner join table2
on symbol1 = symbol2
and year(date1) = year(date2)
