    Indian Journal of Finance, 2018
    It has been a challenge to develop a successful model for accurate stock price trend prediction. This paper aimed to develop an accurate model based on semantic analysis of social network communities for predicting stock day end closing prices using the wisdom of crowds ; www.mmb.moneycontrol.com, a financial blog covers all the companies listed on the National Stock Exchange of India. Influential and accurate opinions expressed in the blogs lead to community formation. The study focused on detection of such communities using betweenness centrality measure and performed a semantic analysis of their content to develop a prediction model based on correlation between blog sentiments and stock day end closing prices for predicting the stock trends. Thirty nine Indian banks were selected for the study during the period from October 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017 and the experimental results of the number of correct predictions of upside and downside movement of day end stock price were validated against the actual values. The model achieved a prediction accuracy of 84% and correlation of the model was within the significant limits of Z - test and Pearson's coefficient of 0.8.

    Corporations have always desired prompt customer experience feedback about their products for amending current pricing and policies to stay ahead of their competitors. A positive customer experience can be created by analyzing customer sentiments and acting on them promptly. Social networks like Twitter represent collective intelligence and opinion of the general public and hence can be harnessed for real-time feedback. They have evolved as a resource for extracting sentiments for applications in various fields. Sentiment analysis can be used to obtain the overall customer experience of a large customer base on a real time. In this research, a total of 153,651 distinct tweets for Twitter handle of 5 popular telecom brands in India: Aircel, Bharti Airtel, Idea Cellular, Reliance Jio and Vodafone India were extracted for five months to develop a prediction model for telecom subscriber addition using the sentiment score. The results were validated statistically using correlation analysis. Positive customer sentiments about the brand which they prefer is reflected by higher growth rate of new subscribers added with that brand in the study period. The sentiment analysis results can be used by managements to take timely actions for improving the future customer experience and avoiding customer churn.
