The importance of sentiment analysis in the rapidly evolving financial markets is widely recognized for its ability to interpret market trends and inform investment decisions. This study delves into the target-level financial sentiment analysis (TLFSA) of news headlines related to stock. The study compares the performance in the TLFSA task of various sentiment analysis techniques, including rule-based models (VADER), fine-tuned transformer-based models (DistilFinRoBERTa and Deberta-v3-base-absa-v1.1) as well as zero-shot large language models (ChatGPT and Gemini). The dataset utilized for this analysis, a novel contribution of this research, comprises 1476 manually annotated Bloomberg headlines and is made publicly available (due to copyright restrictions, only the URLs of Bloomberg headlines with the manual annotations are provided; however, these URLs can be used with a Bloomberg terminal to reconstruct the complete dataset) to encourage future research on this subject. The results indicate that the fine-tuned Deberta-v3-base-absa-v1.1 model performs better across all evaluation metrics than other evaluated models in TLFSA. However, LLMs such as ChatGPT-4, ChatGPT-4o, and Gemini 1.5 Pro provide similar performance levels without the need for task-specific fine-tuning or additional training. The study contributes to assessing the performance of LLMs for financial sentiment analysis, providing useful insights into their possible application in the financial domain.
... However, compared with the study of emotion in other text genres we encounter in modern life, such as news articles (Nemes and Kiss, 2021) and reviews (Yi and Liu, 2020), there is less research on poetry (Ahmad et al., 2020a), not to mention on classical Chinese poetry (Tang et al., 2020). Actually, it is more challenging to process ancient Chinese texts than modern Chinese text. ...

Classical Chinese poetry has a long history, dating back to the 11th century BC. By investigating the sentiment expressed in the poetry, we can gain more insights in the emotional life and history development in ancient Chinese culture. To help improve the sentiment analysis performance in the field of classical Chinese poetry, we propose to utilize the unique information from the individual short lines that compose the poem, and introduce a multi-task framework with hierarchical attention enhanced with short line sentiment labels. Specifically, the multi-task framework comprises sentiment analysis for both the overall poem and the short lines, while the hierarchical attention consists of word- and sentence-level attention, with the latter enhanced with additional information from short line sentiments. Our experimental results showcase that our approach leveraging more fine-grained information from short lines outperforms the state-of-the-art, achieving an accuracy score of 72.88% and an F1-macro score of 71.05%.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the stay-at-home and biotechnology economies played a big part in economic development. The major internet forums have received more attention and discussions concerning stocks related to biotechnology and the stay-at-home economy. When the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in a country rises, so does the positive or negative sentiment in stock commentaries. Whether stock forums can be a valuable source of information for investors has become a subject of academic research. This study used text mining and sentiment analysis to analyze stock forum articles, classify daily reports into emotion and investment orientation indicators, and correlate these indicators with the next-day 2019’s stock prices. The findings indicate a positive correlation between stock forum articles and stock prices. Additionally, this research enriched the case of sentiment analysis in the context of Chinese sentiment. This study contributes not only to academic reference and refinement but also to market investors’ judgment.

This paper presents a novel multimodal deep learning framework for analyzing news sentiments and forecasting market movements by leveraging natural language processing, deep learning, and auxiliary data sources. Traditional methods often rely solely on textual news data, limiting their predictive power due to the complexity and ambiguity of language. Our approach incorporates additional modalities such as stock prices, social media sentiment, and economic indicators to capture a more comprehensive view of market dynamics. We employ a hybrid deep learning architecture that combines convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for text feature extraction, long short-term memory (LSTM) networks for capturing sequential dependencies, and attention mechanisms to selectively focus on the most relevant features. To address data scarcity, we introduce advanced data augmentation techniques, generating synthetic news headlines based on historical stock price movements and sentiment patterns. The proposed system is evaluated on a comprehensive dataset spanning multiple years, including news headlines, stock prices, social media data, and economic indicators. Our method achieves an accuracy of 77.51%, significantly outperforming traditional methods and demonstrating improved robustness and predictive power. This study highlights the potential of integrating diverse data sources and sophisticated deep learning techniques to enhance news sentiment analysis and market movement forecasting.

Predicting stock market movement direction is a challenging task due to its fuzzy, chaotic, volatile, nonlinear, and complex nature. However, with advancements in artificial intelligence, abundant data availability, and improved computational capabilities, creating robust models capable of accurately predicting stock market movement is now feasible. This study aims to construct a predictive model using news headlines to predict stock market movement direction. It conducts a comparative analysis of five supervised classification machine learning algorithms—logistic regression (LR), support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), and artificial neural network (ANN)—to predict the next day’s movement direction of the close price of the Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE) index. Sentiment scores from news headlines are computed using the Valence Aware Dictionary for Sentiment Reasoning (VADER) and TextBlob sentiment analyzer. The models’ performance is evaluated based on sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC). Experimental results reveal that all five models perform equally well when using sentiment scores from the TextBlob analyzer. Similarly, all models exhibit almost identical performance when using sentiment scores from the VADER analyzer, except for minor variations in AUC in SVM vs. LR and SVM vs. ANN. Moreover, models perform relatively better when using sentiment scores from the TextBlob analyzer compared to the VADER analyzer. These findings are further validated through statistical tests.

Confusion, fear and mixed sentiments prevail in the minds of people towards what is arguably one of the most important of dynamics of modern human society: Artificial Intelligence (AI). This study aims to explore the contributions of news media towards this phenomenon - we analyze nearly seventy thousand recent news headlines on AI, using natural language processing (NLP) informatics methods, machine learning (ML) and large language models (LLMs) to draw insights and discover dominant themes. Our theoretical framework was derived from extant literature which posits the power of fear producing articles and news headlines which produce significant impacts on public behavior even when available in small quantities. We applied extensive textual informatics methods using word and phrase frequency analytics, sentiment analysis and human experts based thematic analysis to discover insights on AI phobia inducing news headlines. Our rigorous analysis of nearly seventy thousand headlines using multiple validation methods in NLP (exploratory informatics including BERT, Llama 2 and Mistral based topic identification), ML (supervised informatics) and LLMs (neural nets for sentiment classification, with BERT, Llama 2 and Mistral) demonstrates the presence of an unreasonable level of emotional negativity and fear inducing verbiage in AI news headlines. The framing of AI as being dangerous or as being an existential threat to humanity can have a profound impact on public perception, and the resulting AI phobia and confusion in public perceptions are inherently detrimental to the science of AI. Furthermore, this can also impact AI policy and regulations, and harm society. We conclude with a discussion deducing implications for society and make recommendations for education and policies that could support human identity and dignity.
