The search for models to predict the prices of financial markets is still a highly researched topic, despite major related challenges. The prices of financial assets are non-linear, dynamic, and chaotic; thus, they are financial time series that are difficult to predict. Among the latest techniques, machine learning models are some of the most researched, given their capabilities for recognizing complex patterns in various applications. We evaluate HARGREAVES SERVICES PLC prediction models with Multi-Instance Learning (ML) and Logistic Regression1,2,3,4 and conclude that the LON:HSP 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 Sell LON:HSP stock.
Keywords: LON:HSP, HARGREAVES SERVICES PLC, stock forecast, machine learning based prediction, risk rating, buy-sell behaviour, stock analysis, target price analysis, options and futures.
Key Points
- Is Target price a good indicator?
- Understanding Buy, Sell, and Hold Ratings
- Reaction Function

LON:HSP Target Price Prediction Modeling Methodology
As part of this research, different techniques have been studied for data extraction and analysis. After having reviewed the work related to the initial idea of the research, it is shown the development carried out, together with the data extraction and the machine learning algorithms for prediction used. The calculation of technical analysis metrics is also included. The development of a visualization platform has been proposed for high-level interaction between the user and the recommendation system. We consider HARGREAVES SERVICES PLC Stock Decision Process with Logistic Regression where A is the set of discrete actions of LON:HSP 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
