Abstract

Text mining, one of the emerging fields of data mining, aims at acquiring useful knowledge from text data. In the asset management in finance task domain, although there exist various text data like accounting settlement or analysts’ reports, few research and development have been conducted. In this paper, we will explore the feasibility to extract valuable knowledge for asset management through text mining using analyst reports as text data. We will analyze the relationship between text data and numerical data. From empirical study on the practical data, we have confirmed the effectiveness: (1) the extracted keywords are influential to the stock prices, (2) such information is more effective to the large-cap stocks, and (3) such keyword information become more valuable by using numerical information together.
