Introduction

This NLP application will:

  • Classify articles into topics using both supervised and unsupervised learning. ESG topics are used for the supervised approach. New York Times historical articles data is used.
  • Determine the sentiment of the article. A labeled Kagle data set is used to train this model. Almost 5,000 financial headlines are used.
  • Compute signals for portfolio construction using both the topics and the sentiment of the articles for public companies.
  • Build portfolios using this signals. Stock prices data from Tiingo are used for the construction and backtest. Focus on largest 500 U.S. companies.
