Abstract
We evaluate American Express prediction models with Ensemble Learning (ML) and Independent T-Test1,2,3,4 and conclude that the AXP stock is predictable in the short/long term. According to price forecasts for (n+1 year) period: The dominant strategy among neural network is to Hold AXP stock.
Keywords: AXP, American Express, stock forecast, machine learning based prediction, risk rating, buy-sell behaviour, stock analysis, target price analysis, options and futures.
Key Points
- Is it better to buy and sell or hold?
- Should I buy stocks now or wait amid such uncertainty?
- Is it better to buy and sell or hold?

AXP Target Price Prediction Modeling Methodology
We consider American Express Stock Decision Process with Independent T-Test where A is the set of discrete actions of AXP stock holders, F is the set of discrete states, P : S × F × S → R is the transition probability distribution, R : S × F → R is the reaction function, and γ ∈ [0, 1] is a move factor for expectation.1,2,3,4
F(Independent T-Test)5,6,7= X R(Ensemble Learning (ML)) X S(n):→ (n+1 year)
n:Time series to forecast
p:Price signals of AXP stock
j:Nash equilibria
k:Dominated move
a:Best response for target price

Conclusions
American Express assigned short-term Ba3 & long-term Ba3 forecasted stock rating. We evaluate the prediction models Ensemble Learning (ML) with Independent T-Test1,2,3,4 and conclude that the AXP stock is predictable in the short/long term. According to price forecasts for (n+1 year) period: The dominant strategy among neural network is to Hold AXP stock.
