Research Data

Abstract

Stock market forecasting continues to be an active area of research. In recent years machine learning algorithms have been applied to achieve better predictions. Using natural language processing (NLP), contextual information from unstructured data including news feeds, analysts calls and other online content have been used as indicators to improve prediction rates. In this work we compare traditional machine learning methods with more recent ones, including LSTM and FinBERT to assess improvements, challenges and future directions.
