Start-up uses artificial intelligence to visualises market sentiment

Hong Kong-based start-up Amareos uses artificial intelligence to digest 24 hours of news and social media postings to populate its visualisation tool with market sentiment updates. It currently tracks 100 single stocks with plans to expand this to 8,000, and maps how investors view countries and currencies. The start-up will also develop its service to cover market chatter in Chinese and Japanese. 

Amareos’ argument is that the best-informed investors are the most likely to prosper - and the company can save them the trouble of collating reams of pertinent data that will point them in the right direction. Photo: Reuters
