Context

Stocks and financial instrument trading is a lucrative proposition. Stock markets across the world facilitate such trades and thus wealth exchanges hands. Stock prices move up and down all the time and having ability to predict its movement has immense potential to make one rich. Stock price prediction has kept people interested from a long time. There are hypothesis like the Efficient Market Hypothesis, which says that it is almost impossible to beat the market consistently and there are others which disagree with it.

There are a number of known approaches and new research going on to find the magic formula to make you rich. One of the traditional methods is the time series forecasting. Fundamental analysis is another method where numerous performance ratios are analyzed to assess a given stock. On the emerging front, there are neural networks, genetic algorithms, and ensembling techniques.

Another challenging problem in stock price prediction is Black Swan Event, unpredictable events that cause stock market turbulence. These are events that occur from time to time, are unpredictable and often come with little or no warning.

A black swan event is an event that is completely unexpected and cannot be predicted. Unexpected events are generally referred to as black swans when they have significant consequences, though an event with few consequences might also be a black swan event. It may or may not be possible to provide explanations for the occurrence after the fact – but not before. In complex systems, like economies, markets and weather systems, there are often several causes. After such an event, many of the explanations for its occurrence will be overly simplistic.

New bleeding age state-of-the-art deep learning models stock predictions is overcoming such obstacles e.g. "Transformer and Time Embeddings". An objectives are to apply these novel models to forecast stock price.

Stock price prediction is the task of forecasting the future value of a given stock. Given the historical daily close price for S&P 500 Index, prepare and compare forecasting solutions. S&P 500 or Standard and Poor's 500 index is an index comprising of 500 stocks from different sectors of US economy and is an indicator of US equities. Other such indices are the Dow 30, NIFTY 50, Nikkei 225, etc. For the purpose of understanding, we are utilizing S&P500 index, concepts, and knowledge can be applied to other stocks as well.

Dataset

The historical stock price information is also publicly available. For our current use case, we will utilize the pandas_datareader library to get the required S&P 500 index history using Yahoo Finance databases. We utilize the closing price information from the dataset available though other information such as opening price, adjusted closing price, etc., are also available. We prepare a utility function get_raw_data() to extract required information in a pandas dataframe. The function takes index ticker name as input. For S&P 500 index, the ticker name is ^GSPC. The following snippet uses the utility function to get the required data.(See Simple LSTM Regression)

Features and Terminology: In stock trading, the high and low refer to the maximum and minimum prices in a given time period. Open and close are the prices at which a stock began and ended trading in the same period. Volume is the total amount of trading activity. Adjusted values factor in corporate actions such as dividends, stock splits, and new share issuance.

This report analyses movements in the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) Volatility Index. Known by its ticker symbol VIX, the CBOE Volatility Index is a real-time market index that indicates the stock market's expectation of volatility and is derived from the price inputs of the S&P 500 Index options - the S&P 500 is a US stock market index based on the market capitalisation of 500 large companies having common stock listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), the Nasdaq Stock Market (NASDAQ), or the Cboe BZX Exchange. Effectively, the VIX measures the degree of variation in S&P 500 stocks' trading price observed over a period of time. The data is sourced from Yahoo Finance, which ultimately derives from the CBOE, in addition to estimates by IBISWorld. The figures represent the average daily unadjusted close value of the index over the UK financial year (i.e. April through March).

In this dataset you can find the Top 100 companies in the technology sector. You can also find 5 of the most important and used indices in the financial market as well as a list of all the companies in the S&P 500 index and in the technology sector.

The Global Industry Classification Standard also known as GICS is the primary financial industry standard for defining sector classifications. The Global Industry Classification Standard was developed by index providers MSCI and Standard and Poor’s. Its hierarchy begins with 11 sectors which can be further delineated to 24 industry groups, 69 industries, and 158 sub-industries.

You can read the definition of each sector here.

The 11 broad GICS sectors commonly used for sector breakdown reporting include the following: Energy, Materials, Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, Consumer Staples, Health Care, Financials, Information Technology, Telecommunication Services, Utilities and Real Estate.

In this case we will focuse in the Technology Sector. You can see all the sectors and industry groups here.

To determine which companies, correspond to the technology sector, we use Yahoo Finance, where we rank the companies according to their “Market Cap”. After having the list of the Top 100 best valued companies in the sector, we proceeded to download the historical data of each of the companies using the NASDAQ website.

Regarding to the indices, we searched various sources to find out which were the most used and determined that the 5 most frequently used indices are: Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI), S&P 500 (SPX), NASDAQ Composite (IXIC), Wilshire 5000 Total Market Inde (W5000) and to specifically view the technology sector SPDR Select Sector Fund - Technology (XLK). Historical data for these indices was also obtained from the NASDQ website.
