This study investigates the relationship between tweet sentiment across diverse categories: news, company opinions, CEO opinions, competitor opinions, and stock market behavior in the biotechnology sector, with a focus on understanding the impact of social media discourse on investor sentiment and decision-making processes. We analyzed historical stock market data for ten of the largest and most influential pharmaceutical companies alongside Twitter data related to COVID-19, vaccines, the companies, and their respective CEOs. Using VADER sentiment analysis, we examined the sentiment scores of tweets and assessed their relationships with stock market performance. We employed ARIMA (AutoRegressive Integrated Moving Average) and VAR (Vector AutoRegression) models to forecast stock market performance, incorporating sentiment covariates to improve predictions. Our findings revealed a complex interplay between tweet sentiment, news, biotech companies, their CEOs, and stock market performance, emphasizing the importance of considering diverse factors when modeling and predicting stock prices. This study provides valuable insights into the influence of social media on the financial sector and lays a foundation for future research aimed at refining stock price prediction models.

More and more investors and machine learning models rely on social media (e.g., Twitter and Reddit) to gather real-time information and sentiment to predict stock price movements. Although text-based models are known to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks, whether stock prediction models have similar vulnerability is underexplored. In this paper, we experiment with a variety of adversarial attack configurations to fool three stock prediction victim models. We address the task of adversarial generation by solving combinatorial optimization problems with semantics and budget constraints. Our re…
Public opinion influences events, especially related to stock market movement, in which a subtle hint can influence the local outcome of the market. In this paper, we present a dataset that allows for company-level analysis of tweet based impact on one-, two-, three-, and seven-day stock returns. Our dataset consists of 862, 231 labelled instances from twitter in English, we also release a cleaned subset of 85, 176 labelled instances to the community. We also provide baselines using standard machine learning algorithms and a multi-view learning based approach that makes use of different types …
As more and more data being created every day, all of it can help take better decisions with data analysis. It is not different from data generated in financial markets. Here we examine the process of how the global economy is affected by the market sentiment influenced by the micro-blogging data (tweets) of American President Donald Trump. The news feed is gathered from The Guardian and Bloomberg from the period between December 2016 and October 2019, which are used to further identify the potential tweets that influenced the markets as measured by changes in equity indices.
Python was used to download and format NewsAPI article data relating to 400 publicly traded, low cap. Biotech companies. Crowd-sourcing was used to label a subset of this data to then train and evaluate a variety of models to classify the public sentiment of each company. The best performing models were then used to show that trading entirely off public sentiment could provide market beating returns.
This paper presents a cross-domain trend analysis that aims to identify and analyze the relationships between stock prices, stock news on Twitter, and users' behaviors on e-commerce websites. The analysis is based on three datasets: a US stock dataset, a stock tweets dataset, and an e-commerce behavior dataset. The analysis is performed using Hadoop, Hive, and Tableau, allowing for efficient and scalable processing and visualizing large datasets. The analysis includes trend analysis of Twitter sentiment (positive and negative tweets) and correlation analysis, including the correlation between …
COVID-19 has had a much larger impact on the financial markets compared to previous epidemics because the news information is transferred over the social networks at a speed of light. Using Twitter's API, we compiled a unique dataset with more than 26 million COVID-19 related Tweets collected from February 2nd until May 1st, 2020. We find that more frequent use of the word "stock" in daily Tweets is associated with a substantial decline in log returns of three key US indices - Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P500, and NASDAQ. The results remain virtually unchanged in multiple robustness checks…
This paper tries to address the problem of stock market prediction leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) strategies. The stock market prediction can be modeled based on two principal analyses called technical and fundamental. In the technical analysis approach, the regression machine learning (ML) algorithms are employed to predict the stock price trend at the end of a business day based on the historical price data. In contrast, in the fundamental analysis, the classification ML algorithms are applied to classify the public sentiment based on news and social media. In the technical analysis…

The increasing availability of "big" (large volume) social media data has motivated a great deal of research in applying sentiment analysis to predict the movement of prices within financial markets. Previous work in this field investigates how the true sentiment of text (i.e. positive or negative opinions) can be used for financial predictions, based on the assumption that sentiments expressed online are representative of the true market sentiment. Here we consider the converse idea, that using the stock price as the ground-truth in the system may be a better indication of sentiment. Tweets a…
In this paper, we propose a modified Levy jump diffusion model with market sentiment memory for stock prices, where the market sentiment comes from data mining implementation using Tweets on Twitter. We take the market sentiment process, which has memory, as the signal of Levy jumps in the stock price. An online learning and optimization algorithm with the Unscented Kalman filter (UKF) is then proposed to learn the memory and to predict possible price jumps. Experiments show that the algorithm provides a relatively good performance in identifying asset return trends.
In order to make good investment decisions, it is vitally important for an investor to know how to make good analysis of financial time series. Within this context, studies on the forecast of the values and trends of stock prices have become more relevant. Currently, there are different approaches to dealing with the task. The two main ones are the historical analysis of stock prices and technical indicators and the analysis of sentiments in news, blogs and tweets about the market. Some of the most used statistical and artificial intelligence techniques are genetic algorithms, Support Vector M…
The gargantuan plethora of opinions, facts and tweets on financial business offers the opportunity to test and analyze the influence of such text sources on future directions of stocks. It also creates though the necessity to distill via statistical technology the informative elements of this prodigious and indeed colossal data source. Using mixed text sources from professional platforms, blog fora and stock message boards we distill via different lexica sentiment variables. These are employed for an analysis of stock reactions: volatility, volume and returns. An increased sentiment, especiall…

The rapid spread of information over social media influences quantitative trading and investments. The growing popularity of speculative trading of highly volatile assets such as cryptocurrencies and meme stocks presents a fresh challenge in the financial realm. Investigating such "bubbles" - periods of sudden anomalous behavior of markets are critical in better understanding investor behavior and market dynamics. However, high volatility coupled with massive volumes of chaotic social media texts, especially for underexplored assets like cryptocoins pose a challenge to existing methods. Taking…
Prediction and quantification of future volatility and returns play an important role in financial modelling, both in portfolio optimization and risk management. Natural language processing today allows to process news and social media comments to detect signals of investors' confidence. We have explored the relationship between sentiment extracted from financial news and tweets and FTSE100 movements. We investigated the strength of the correlation between sentiment measures on a given day and market volatility and returns observed the next day. The findings suggest that there is evidence of c…
