Application of Artificial Intelligence in Stock Market Forecasting: A Critique, Review, and Research Agenda

The stock market is characterized by extreme fluctuations, non-linearity, and shifts in internal and external environmental variables. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques can detect such non-linearity, resulting in much-improved forecast results. This paper reviews 148 studies utilizing neural a...
