Multiclass Sentiment Prediction for Stock Trading

Statistical Finance 2022-10-04 v1 Machine Learning

Abstract

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.
