 Data Processing

 Articles collected from the NY Times archive

API contain the data in the form of categories
represented by sections. Some of the sections
contains some irrelevant categories of articles,
which are not related to stocks at all, such as
Biography, Obituary, and Schedule etc.
Therefore, we have removed those kinds of
articles from the lists. Article sections that are
kept at the end for sentiment analysis are as
follows: 'Business', 'National', 'World',
'Politics', 'Opinion', 'Tech', 'Science', 'Health'
and „Foreign'.
 After filtering out the relevant articles, a
single string was formed from concatenating Figure 3: Data Set
all the articles headlines for a single day. After
getting the single string for a day, it was
merged with appropriate date.

the machine learning model to predict the
stock prices. Finding future trend for a stock is a crucial task
because stock trends depend on number of actors.
IV. EXPERIMENTAL VALUES We assumed that news articles and stock price are
related to each other. And, news may have capacity
to fluctuate stock trend. So, we thoroughly studied
this relationship and concluded that stock trend can
be predicted using news articles and previous price
history.
In order to invest money in stock market for
purchasing the shares it is very essential for the
investors to predict the stock market condition.
If the news is positive, then we can state that this
news impact is good in the market, so more chances
of stock price go high. And if the news is negative,
then it may impact the stock price to go down in
trend.
