• Title: Stock Index Prediction with Multi-task Learning and Word Polarity Over Time
• Authors: Yue Zhou, Kerstin Voigt
• Abstract summary: We propose a two-stage system that consists of a sentiment extractor and a summarizer. We adopt BERT with multitask learning which predicts the worthiness of the news and propose a metric called Polarity-Over-Time to extract the word polarity. A Weekly-Monday prediction framework and a new dataset, the 10-year Reuters financial news dataset, are also proposed.

• Abstract: Sentiment-based stock prediction systems aim to explore sentiment or event signals from online corpora and attempt to relate the signals to stock price variations. Both the feature-based and neural-networks-based approaches have delivered promising results. However, the frequently minor fluctuations of the stock prices restrict learning the sentiment of text from price patterns, and learning market sentiment from text can be biased if the text is irrelevant to the underlying market. In addition, when using discrete word features, the polarity of a certain term can change over time according to different events. To address these issues, we propose a two-stage system that consists of a sentiment extractor to extract the opinion on the market trend and a summarizer that predicts the direction of the index movement of following week given the opinions of the news over the current week. We adopt BERT with multitask learning which additionally predicts the worthiness of the news and propose a metric called Polarity-Over-Time to extract the word polarity among different event periods. A Weekly-Monday prediction framework and a new dataset, the 10-year Reuters financial news dataset, are also proposed.

  Finance-related news such as Bloomberg News, CNN Business and Forbes are valuable sources of real data for market screening systems. We propose a novel system to detect the temporality of finance-related news at discourse level. We have tested our system on a labelled dataset of finance-related news annotated by researchers with knowledge in the field.

  This paper proposes an effective algorithm based on neural networks to take advantage of these investment products. A deep neural network, which outputs the allocation weight of each asset at a time interval, is trained to maximize the Sharpe ratio. A novel loss term is proposed to regulate the network's bias towards a specific asset, thus enforcing the network to learn an allocation strategy that is close to a minimum variance strategy.

  Multi-step stock price prediction over a long-term horizon is crucial for forecasting its volatility. Current solutions to multi-step stock price prediction are mostly designed for single-step, classification-based predictions. We combine a deep hierarchical variational-autoencoder (VAE) and diffusion probabilistic techniques to do seq2seq stock prediction. Our model is shown to outperform state-of-the-art solutions in terms of its prediction accuracy and variance.

We show that the screened dataset leads to more effective feature capturing and thus superior performance on short-term asset return prediction.

We introduce a new evaluation metric "dR@n,IoU@m" that discounts the basic recall scores to alleviate the inflating evaluation caused by biased datasets.

  We propose a relational event-driven stock trend forecasting (REST) framework, which can address the shortcoming of existing methods. To remedy the first shortcoming, we propose to model the stock context and learn the effect of event information on the stocks under different contexts. To address the second shortcoming, we construct a stock graph and design a new propagation layer to propagate the effect of event information from related stocks.
