StarMine MarketPsych Media Sentiment Model

An overview of StarMine MarketPsych Media Sentiment Model

The StarMine MarketPsych Media Sentiment (MMS) model is a stock ranking system that provides a 1-100 daily percentile ranking for over 16,000 global stocks. MMS complements the StarMine suite of equity models and follows a similar methodology in research and implementation. The model is derived from our MarketPsych Analytics, a market leader in financial media sentiment data.

The output includes an overall score, as well as specific Equity, Business, and Management scores. The MMS scores are designed to predict the next month’s relative share price returns, with higher ranked stocks outperforming lower.

The historical evaluation demonstrates significant outperformance of higher deciles versus lower ones, with the top-bottom decile spread averaging 10.4% annually from 2006 to October 2020, including 12.3% in the out-of-sample period. The MMS scores are uncorrelated with traditional market factors and complement fundamental models.
