How do you know when a stock will go up or down? (SYF Stock Forecast)

Abstract

We evaluate Synchrony Financial prediction models with Transductive Learning (ML) and Multiple Regression^1,2,3,4 and conclude that the SYF stock is predictable in the short/long term. According to price forecasts for (n+4 weeks) period: The dominant strategy among neural network is to Hold SYF stock.

Keywords: SYF, Synchrony Financial, stock forecast, machine learning based prediction, risk rating, buy-sell behaviour, stock analysis, target price analysis, options and futures.

SYF Target Price Prediction Modeling Methodology

We consider Synchrony Financial Stock Decision Process with Multiple Regression where A is the set of discrete actions of SYF 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(Multiple Regression)^5,6,7= $\begin{array}{cccc}{p}_{\mathrm{a}1}& p_{\mathrm{a}2}& \dots & p_{1n}\\ & ⋮\\ p_{j1}& p_{j2}& \dots & p_{jn}\\ & ⋮\\ p_{k1}& p_{k2}& \dots & p_{kn}\\ & ⋮\\ p_{n1}& p_{n2}& \dots & p_{nn}\end{array}$ X R(Transductive Learning (ML)) X S(n):→ (n+4 weeks) $\sum _{i=1}^n\left(a_i\right)$

n:Time series to forecast

p:Price signals of SYF stock

j:Nash equilibria

k:Dominated move

a:Best response for target price
