PickStock Short Description:
PickStock uses principal components analysis to predict fair stock prices
|
PickStock Long Description:
PickStock (copyright 2003, Bell Software and Services, Inc.) uses principal components analysis to search out potentially underpriced stocks by analyzing a user-supplied database of historical stock prices. The program is believed to be an implementation of what is known in the financial market modeling community as 'arbitrage pricing theory' (see for example S. Ross, 'The arbitrage theory of capital asset pricing', J. Economic Theory, vol. 13, pp. 341-360, 1976). The theory postulates that a given vector of prices (for example, today's price for a set of stocks) can be explained by a linear combination of underlying economic components. While there is apparently substantial debate in the economic community as to the viability of the arbitrage pricing theory, this application provides a tool to test it out on real data.
Who can best make use of this application:
It is hoped that any user who can download stock price data into MetaStock text format will find PickStock sufficiently easy to use. Facility in handling text files and importing them into spreadsheets is also a plus. Economists and stock analysts may be able to utilize the program along with a more traditional analysis of economic fundamentals. Scientists, engineers, and students may even be able to tap into the powerful principal components analysis engine that PickStock incorporates by replacing closing prices with arbitrary data (ie. a given 'date' can be associated with one experiment having outputs for each of the 'tickers' with the output values corresponding to the ticker being in the 'close' field).

Discover How PC Satellite TV Software Works That Lets Users Watch Unlimited Free Internet TV!
by Philip Sumpter
The term PC Satellite TV has so many different variations such as Satellite for PC and Satellite TV on PC that you can become quite confused if they didn't reflect a specific name of a software. Nevertheless for this article, I decided to use the first term to represent all the software available over the Net since it has the most number of searches on Google with the phrase Satellite TV included. The other two terms came in a distant second and third respectively. However there comes an...
