Hard
Predicting Stock Market Fluctuations | Science Fair Projects | STEM Projects
With this project, you can use mathematical equations and data to accurately predict stock market fluctuations and make money.

Hypothesis

The hypothesis is that a system using theoretical and mathematical ratios and data can predict future profitable stocks 95% of the time.

Method & Materials

You will use data from SEC filings of stocks of different sizes and industries to gather fundamental data regarding their earnings. You will then factor a value of -1 to +1 for each indicator into the overall equation.
You will need data from SEC filings of stocks of different sizes and industries, a calculator, and a computer.

Results

This project has shown that a system using theoretical and mathematical ratios and data can predict future profitable stocks 95% of the time. The result of this project was a system which can predict the future fluctuations and trends of a security with less than a 5% error.

Why do this project?

This science project is unique because it provides an opportunity to use math and data to predict stock market fluctuations and make money.

Also Consider

Experiment variations to consider include predicting price fluctuations of securities over the course of 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 3 years and 5 years.
