Stocks' data mathematical modeling using differential equations: The case of healthcare companies in athens stock exchange

Abstract

Stock prices' prediction is fundamental for investment decision-making. In this research, a differential equations model is developed for stock prices prediction. More specifically, a 7×7 differential equations system based on Lanchester's combat models will be used. Data concerning the short-term stock's prices of healthcare firms listed in Athens Stock Exchange will be analyzed in order to develop and evaluate the stocks' prices predictive model. The obtained results revealed the differential equations model potential for stock prices' prediction in the short-term. © 2021 Gnedenko Forum. All Rights Reserved.
