AI Stock Selection: Data, Models, Applications, and Limits

Article BigQuant

Summary

The document defines AI-based stock selection as using machine learning and deep learning to analyze financial and market information, identify patterns, forecast possible price moves, and generate investment suggestions. It describes inputs such as historical prices, company reports, news, and social media, alongside tasks including data processing, pattern recognition, portfolio risk assessment, and automated execution.

It identifies possible uses in long-term portfolio design, short-term trading, risk assessment, and market monitoring, and describes professional investors, retail investors, analysts, and quantitative investors as potential users. The listed advantages—processing large datasets, finding patterns, responding quickly, and reducing emotional influence—are general claims rather than results from a particular study. The document provides no model design, validation method, performance figures, or discussion of overfitting and data quality, so it serves as an overview rather than evidence that AI forecasts are reliable.
