# pandas.Panel.slice_shift

`Panel.``slice_shift`(periods=1, axis=0, **kwds)

  Equivalent to shift without copying data. The shifted data will not include the dropped periods and the shifted axis will be smaller than the original.

  Parameters : | periods : int Number of periods to move, can be positive or negative
  Returns : | shifted : same type as caller

  Notes

  While the slice_shift is faster than shift, you may pay for it later during alignment.
