As of June 17, 2024, the most shorted stock was for, the American holographic technology services provider, MicroCloud Hologram Inc., with 66.64 percent of their total float having been shorted. This is a change from mid-January 2021, when video game retailed GameStop had an incredible 121.07 percent of their available shares in a short position. In effect this means that investors had 'borrowed' more shares (with a future promise to return them) than the total number of shares available for public trading. Owing to this behavior of professional investors, retail investors enacted a campaign to drive up the stock price of Gamestop, leading to losses of billions when investors had to repurchase the stock they had borrowed. At this time, a similar – but less effective – social media campaign was also carried out for the stock price of cinema operator AMC, and the price of silver. What is short selling? Short selling is essentially where an investor bets on a share price falling by: borrowing a number of shares selling these shares while the price is still high; purchasing the same number again once the price falls; then returning the borrowed shares at a profit. Of course, a profit will only be made if the share price does fall; should the share price rise the investor will then need to purchase the shares back at a higher price, and thus incur a loss. Short selling can lead to some very large profits in a short amount of time, with Tesla stock generating over one billion dollars in short sell profits during the first week of March 2020 alone, owing to the financial crash caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. However, owing to the short-term, opportunistic nature of short selling, these returns look less impressive when considered as net profits from short sell positions over the full year. The risks of short selling Short selling carries greater risks than traditional investments, and for this reason financial advisors often recommend against this strategy for ‘retail’ (i.e. non-professional) investors. The reason for this is that losses from short selling are potentially uncapped, whereas losses from traditional investments are limited to the initial cost. For example, if someone purchases 100 dollars of shares, the maximum they can lose is the 100 dollars the spent on those shares. However, say someone borrows 100 dollars of shares instead, betting on the price falling. If these shares are then sold for 100 dollars but the price subsequently rises, the losses could greatly exceed the initial investment should the price rise to, say, 500 dollars. The risks of short selling can be seen by looking again at Tesla, with the company causing the greatest losses over 2020 from short selling at over 40 billion U.S. dollars.

In just one week in March 2020, investors with a short position on Tesla stock were able to generate profits of over one billion U.S. dollars. From around mid-February 2020, the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic sent global stock markets into a tailspin as entire countries closed down their economy in order to slow the spread of the virus. While the effect on financial markets was catastrophic for many most investors, once class of investor was able to profit handsomely off the disaster - short sellers. Short selling is a process whereby investors effectively borrow a certain number of shares for a period of time, with the aim of selling them when the price is high, then repurchasing at a lower price in order to return them.

Over the course of 2020, U.S. short sellers lost over 40 billion U.S. dollars to shorts of Tesla - a value significantly higher than other companies. While short selling can generate some very large profits in a small amount of time, the practice can also lead to some very large losses should stock prices rise, confounding investors' expectations. Short selling is a process whereby investors effectively borrow a certain number of shares for a period of time, with the aim of selling them when the price is high, then repurchasing at a lower price in order to return them.

Over the course of 2020, U.S. short sellers generated a net profits of around 1.28 billion U.S. dollars from short selling Exxon Mobil stock. While a very large number, this pales in comparison to the net annual losses of from short selling of over 40 billion U.S. dollars for Tesla stock. Short selling is a process whereby investors effectively borrow a certain number of shares for a period of time, with the aim of selling them when the price is high, then repurchasing at a lower price in order to return them.

In 2024, 62 percent of adults in the United States invested in the stock market. This figure has remained steady over the last few years, and is still below the levels before the Great Recession, when it peaked in 2007 at 65 percent. What is the stock market? The stock market can be defined as a group of stock exchanges, where investors can buy shares in a publicly traded company. In more recent years, it is estimated an increasing number of Americans are using neobrokers, making stock trading more accessible to investors. Other investments A significant number of people think stocks and bonds are the safest investments, while others point to real estate, gold, bonds, or a savings account. Since witnessing the significant one-day losses in the stock market during the Financial Crisis, many investors were turning towards these alternatives in hopes for more stability, particularly for investments with longer maturities. This could explain the decrease in this statistic since 2007. Nevertheless, some speculators enjoy chasing the short-run fluctuations, and others see value in choosing particular stocks.

NYSE Integrated is a proprietary data feed that disseminates full order book updates from the New York Stock Exchange (XNYS). It delivers every quote and order at each price level, along with any event that updates the order book after an order is placed, such as trade executions, modifications, or cancellations.

NYSE is the leading venue for listing blue-chip companies and large-cap stocks. Powered by NYSE's Pillar platform, its hybrid market model of floor-based auction and electronic trading allows it to capture a significant portion of trading activity during the US equity market open and close. As of January 2025, the NYSE represented approximately 6.31% of the average daily volume (ADV) across all exchange-listed US securities, including those listed on Nasdaq, other NYSE venues, and Cboe exchanges.

NYSE is also the only exchange to offer Designated Market Maker (DMM) privileges, allowing the floor to send D-Quote Orders, short for Discretionary Orders, throughout the day. Most D-Quote Orders execute in the closing auction, where they're known as Closing D Orders and allow traders to access the NYSE closing auction after 3:50 PM. This creates significant price discovery during the NYSE Closing Auction, where interest represented via the floor contributes more than 40% of total volume.

NYSE is also unique for being the only exchange with a Parity/Priority Allocation model for matching. This resembles a mixed FIFO and pro-rata matching algorithm, where the participant who sets the best price is matched first, and then the remaining shares are allocated to other orders entered by floor brokers at that price (parity allocation). Floor brokers may utilize e-Quotes to to receive such parity allocation of incoming executions.

With L3 granularity, NYSE Integrated captures information beyond the L1, top-of-book data available through SIP feeds, enabling accurate modeling of the book imbalances, queue dynamics, and the auction process. This data includes explicit trade aggressor side, odd lots, and imbalances. Auction imbalances offer valuable insights into NYSE’s opening and closing auctions by providing details like imbalance quantity, paired quantity, imbalance reference price, and book clearing price.

Dataset Glossary (Column-Wise)

Company Name: Name of the Company.

Symbol: A stock symbol is a unique series of letters assigned to a security for trading purposes.

Industry: Name of the industry to which the stock belongs.

Series: EQ stands for Equity. In this series intraday trading is possible in addition to delivery and BE stands for Book Entry. Shares falling in the Trade-to-Trade or T-segment are traded in this series and no intraday is allowed. This means trades can only be settled by accepting or giving the delivery of shares.

Open: It is the price at which the financial security opens in the market when trading begins. It may or may not be different from the previous day's closing price. The security may open at a higher price than the closing price due to excess demand for the security.

High: It is the highest price at which a stock is traded during the course of the trading day and is typically higher than the closing or equal to the opening price.

Low: Today's low is a security's intraday low trading price. Today's low is the lowest price at which a stock trades over the course of a trading day.

Previous Close: The previous close almost always refers to the prior day's final price of a security when the market officially closes for the day. It can apply to a stock, bond, commodity, futures or option co-contract, market index, or any other security.

Last Traded Price: The last traded price (LTP) usually differs from the closing price of the day. This is because the closing price of the day on NSE is the weighted average price of the last 30 mins of trading. The last traded price of the day is the actual last traded price.

Change: For a stock or bond quote, change is the difference between the current price and the last trade of the previous day. For interest rates, change is benchmarked against a major market rate (e.g., LIBOR) and may only be updated as infrequently as once a quarter.

Percentage Change: Take the selling price and subtract the initial purchase price. The result is the gain or loss. Take the gain or loss from the investment and divide it by the original amount or purchase price of the investment. Finally, multiply the result by 100 to arrive at the percentage change in the investment.

Share Volume: Volume is an indicator that means the total number of shares that have been bought or sold in a specific period of time or during the trading day. It will also involve the buying and selling of every share during a specific time period.

Value (Indian Rupee): Market value—also known as market cap—is calculated by multiplying a company's outstanding shares by its current market price.

52-Week High: A 52-week high is the highest share price that a stock has traded at during a passing year. Many market aficionados view the 52-week high as an important factor in determining a stock's current value and predicting future price movement. 52-week High prices are adjusted for Bonus, Split & Rights Corporate actions.

Overall, this project was meant test the relationship between social media posts and their short-term effect on stock prices. We decided to use Reddit posts from financial specific subreddit communities like r/wallstreetbets, r/investing, and r/stocks to see the changes in the market associated with a variety of posts made by users. This idea came to light because of the GameStop short squeeze that showed the power of social media in the market. Typically, stock prices should purely represent the total present value of all the future value of the company, but the question we are asking is whether social media can impact that intrinsic value. Our research question was known from the start and it was do Reddit posts for or against a certain stock provide insight into how the market will move in a short window. To solve this problem, we selected five large tech companies including Apple, Tesla, Amazon, Microsoft, and Google. These companies would likely give us more data in the subreddits and would have less volatility day to day allowing us to simulate an experiment easier. They trade at very high values so a change from a Reddit post would have to be significant giving us proof that there is an effect.

Next, we had to choose our data sources for to have data to test with. First, we tried to locate the Reddit data using a Reddit API, but due to circumstances regarding Reddit requiring approval to use their data we switched to a Kaggle dataset that contained metadata from Reddit. For our second data set we had planned to use Yahoo Finance through yfinance, but due to the large amount of data we were pulling from this public API our IP address was temporarily blocked. This caused us to switch our second data to pull from Alpha Vantage. While this was a large switch in the public it was a minor roadblock and fixing the Finance pulling section allowed for everything else to continue to work in succession. Once we had both of our datasets programmatically pulled into our local vs code, we implemented a pipeline to clean, merge, and analyze all the data. At the end, we implement a Snakemake workflow to ensure the project was easily reproducible. To continue, we utilized Textblob to label our Reddit posts with a sentiment value of positive, negative, or neutral and provide us with a correlation value to analyze with. We then matched the time frame of each post with the stock data and computed any possible changes, found a correlation coefficient, and graphed our findings.

To conclude the data analysis, we found that there is relatively small or no correlation between the total companies, but Microsoft and Google do show stronger correlations when analyzed on their own. However, this may be due to other circumstances like why the post was made or if the market had other trends on those dates already. A larger analysis with more data from other social media platforms would be needed to conclude for our hypothesis that there is a strong correlation.
