Understanding such volatility are beneficial to investors as it empowers them to make inform decisions to avoid losses and invest when opportunities are predicted to earn funds. The objective of this research is to use text mining and data mining techniques to discover the relationship between news articles and stock prices fluctuations. There are a variety of sources for news articles, including Bloomberg, Google Finance, Yahoo Finance, Factiva, Thompson Routers, and Twitter. In our research, we use Factive and Intrinio news databases. These databases provide daily analytical articles about the general stock market, as well as daily changes in stock prices. The focus of this research is on understanding the news articles which influence stock prices. We believe that different types of stocks in the market behave differently, and news articles could provide indications on different stock price movements. The goal of this research is to create a framework that uses text mining and data mining algorithms to correlate different types of news articles with stock fluctuations to predict whether to "Buy", "Sell", or "Hold" a specific stock. We train Doc2Vec models on 1GB of financial news from Factiva to convert news articles into vectors of 100 dimensions. After preprocessing the data, including labeling and balancing the data, we build five predictive models, namely Neural Networks, SVM, Decision Tree, KNN, and Random Forest to predict stock movements (Buy, Sell, or Hold). We evaluate the performances of the predictive models in terms of accuracy and area under the ROC. We conclude that SVM provides the best performance among the five models to predict the stock movement.
