This focus of this paper are the effect, implication, impact and realtionship between selected macroeconomic variables and wider US indices S&P 500 and industrial Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA). I Consider inflation, interest rates, money supply, producer price index, industrial production index, oil price and unemployment and their impact on selected stock indices in the USA between 1999 ...

Financial markets all over the world have witnessed growing integration within as well as across boundaries, spurred by deregulation, globalization and advances in information technology. However, none of the researches have investigated the trading profitability of models that employed the financial market integration information as input variables especially in the case of day trading. Moreov...

Internet stock message boards provide individual investors with a new information medium that could have several effects on stock activity. Message boards may provide investors with a new information source on small cap stocks. Message boards may affect the trading and volatility of certain stocks by influencing investors. The impact of message board information may vary according to characteri...

This paper surveys recent literature in the area of Neural Network, Data Mining, Hidden Markov Model and Neuro-Fuzzy system used to predict the stock market fluctuation. Neural Networks and Neuro-Fuzzy systems are identified to be the leading machine learning techniques in stock market index prediction area. The Traditional techniques are not cover all the possible relation of the stock price f...

this paper employs a general non-linear analysis tool to analyse the nature of time series associated with the price (returns) of a particular company in tehran stock exchange. it is shown that the behavior of the process associated with the price (returns) time-series of this company is weakly chaotic, and due to the non-random behavior of the process, short term prediction of stock price is p...

The stock price e€ects for the domestic competitors of foreign acquisition targets in the US are found to be signi®cantly positive. These results imply that signals of favorable industry conditions conveyed through cross-border acquisitions dominate any perceived changes in competitive balance. Consistent with the information-signaling hypothesis, the stock price e€ects are more favorable for r...

This paper investigates the interactive relationships among China energy price shocks, stock market, and the macroeconomy using multivariate vector autoregression. The results indicate that there is a long cointegration among them. A 1% rise in the energy price index can depress the stock market index by 0.54% and the industrial value-adding growth by 0.037%. Energy price shocks also cause infl...

This study is in accordance with the 2008 US implementation of quantitative policy to conduct research on 53-month data collected from ...

Background and Objectives: Stock price prediction has become one of the interesting and also challenging topics for researchers in the past few years. Due to the non-linear nature of the time-series data of the stock prices, mathematical modeling approaches usually fail to yield acceptable results. Therefore, machine learning methods can be a promising solution to this problem. Methods: In this...
