Stock News Sentiment Analysis Platform

This platform provides real-time sentiment analysis on stock-related news. It fetches news from over 60 different sources and performs sentiment classification. Additionally, it integrates an AI chatbot that allows users to query the fetched news using a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) model.

Features

• Real-Time Data Fetching:

  • Scrapes news from over 60+ websites using Selenium for web scraping.
  • Extracts and parses relevant news using Llama 3.2 LLM.

• Sentiment Analysis:

  • Utilizes the finBERT text classification model to classify news as "positive," "negative," or "neutral."

• AI Chatbot for News Querying:

  • Implements a RAG-based AI chatbot using Langchain and ChromaDB.
  • Utilizes the Gemini-1.5-Flash LLM as the base model for natural language querying of news articles.

Technology Stack

• Selenium: Used for web scraping to fetch real-time news data from various websites.
• Langchain: Framework for building the RAG-based AI chatbot.
• ChromaDB: Vector database used for efficient semantic search and document retrieval.
• Ollama API & Gemini API Platform: For handling and deploying LLM models like Gemini-1.5-Flash for chatbot functionality.
• Llama 3.2 LLM: Used to parse HTML responses and extract relevant news articles.
• finBERT: Specialized model for sentiment analysis in financial texts, classifying news as positive, negative, or neutral.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/stock-news-sentiment-analysis-platform.git
   cd stock-news-sentiment-analysis-platform

2. Set up a virtual environment (optional but recommended):

   python3 -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate

3. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Configure API keys/Model Manifests:

   • You need to set up environment variables or configuration files for the following APIs:
     • Gemini API (for querying news)
     • Ollama Instance (for Llama 3.2 LLM)
     • finBERT (for sentiment classification)

5. Run the application:

   python main.py

Usage

1. Fetching and Analyzing Stock News

The platform scrapes real-time stock news and performs sentiment analysis using finBERT. The classified news is stored in a database for querying and further analysis.

2. Querying News with AI Chatbot

The platform includes a chatbot interface where users can query the news using natural language. The chatbot uses Langchain's RAG model with ChromaDB and the Gemini-1.5-Flash LLM to deliver contextual answers based on the news.

Example queries:

• "What is the latest news about Tesla?"
• "Show me positive news on Apple stock."

Project Structure

• backend/app.py: Contains Flask backend server.
• backend/bot.py: Code for RAG Pipeline.
• backend/sentiment_analysis.py: Inference on finBERT text classification model.
• backend/web_scrape.py:Contain data fetching pipeline to scrape latest news and save to scraped_news.json.
• frontend/:Reactjs library for frontend .

Future Improvements

• Add more advanced NLP models for better parsing of financial data.
• Expand sentiment classification to handle more nuanced market sentiments like "bullish" and "bearish."
• Integrate with more news sources for broader coverage.
