Is it possible to get US GDP to Market Capitalization Ratio & Shiller PE ratio?

Hi I am trying to use the US GDP to market capitalization ratio for some fundamental analysis. However, I don't see it available anywhere in the libraries or data offered. Can someone point me in the right direction? Also, would like to have PE and Shiller PE ratios for SPY.

You can access US GDP in a variety of forms: https://www.quantopian.com/data?searchq=GDP

Market cap is available from the fundamentals data.

Both are accessible via the Pipeline API.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
Josh

I looked through the documentation and gave it a try. I am still encountering some difficulty. Is it possible to provide a short example? It would help members of the community a lot as well. Thanks!

Also interesting, how would you get the market cap of the Wilshire 5000 (the total US Market Cap)?
