The deep neural network - BERT model (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) and the stocks cumulative abnormal return is used in this article to analyze the sentiment of financial texts. The proposed approach, unlike those used so far, does not require the creation of dictionaries, takes into account the broad context of words and their meaning in financial texts, eliminates the problem of ambiguity of words in various contexts, does not require manual labelling of data and is free from the subjective assessment of the researcher. The sentiment of financial texts in the meaning presented in this paper is directly related to the market reaction to the information contained in these texts. For texts belonging to one of the two classes (positive or negative) with the highest probability the BERT model gives the results of predictions with a precision level of 62.38% for the positive class and 55% for the negative class. The results at this level can be used in event study, market efficiency research, investment strategy development or support of investment analysts using fundamental analysis.

An important role in the fundamental analysis is played by the acquisition and analysis of various types of information about the company. Text documents are an increasingly important source of this information. Their accurate and quick analysis is an increasingly important challenge for financial analysts. Research in the area of financial text analysis is based on sentiment analysis. The deep neural networks and the stocks’ cumulative abnormal return are used in this article to analyze the sentiment of financial texts. The proposed approach, unlike those used so far, does not require manual labeling of data or the creation of dictionaries and is free from the subjective assessment of the researcher. Taking into account the broad context of words and their meaning in financial texts, it also eliminates the problem of ambiguity of words in various contexts. The sentiment of financial texts presented in this paper is directly related to the market reaction to the information contained in these texts. For texts belonging to one of the two classes (positive or negative) with the highest probability, the deep learning model gives predictions with a precision of 62% for the positive class and 55% for the negative class. The event study results show that the sentiment calculated under the proposed method can be successfully used to determine the probable direction of the market reaction to the information contained in current reports with a 1 percent significance level. The results can be used in market efficiency research, investment strategy development or support of investment analysts using fundamental analysis.

This study aims to analyze whether market overreaction symptoms occur in Indonesia Stock Exchange, specifically on the LQ-45 Index from 2014 to 2018. This research was separated over 6 and 12 months. The sample was consistent stocks of LQ-45 index companies period 2014 to 2018, it is determined by purposive sampling method. Stocks were classified into two portfolios based on the value of Cumulative Abnormal Return (CAR). Winner portfolio was 3 stocks with the highest value of CAR, and loser portfolio was 3 stocks with the lowest value of CAR. Market overreaction is measured by Average Cumulative Abnormal Return (ACAR) loser portfolio outperformed of winner portfolio ACAR. As a result, the research found that overreaction indications were evidence, but no significance statistically. The result absence of market overreaction symptoms on the Indonesia Stock Exchange showed that the contrarian investment strategy was inappropriate to use, especially on LQ-45 index stocks. Keywords: Overreaction, winner-loser anomaly, LQ-45 Index.

This study was carried out to examine the economic consequences ofvoluntary environmental reporting on shareholders' wealth among Malaysian Listed Companies that voluntarily disclosed environmental information in their financial report. One hundred andfifty two (152) companies of Bursa Malaysia (MSE) had been identified as a sample in the current study. Seventy six (76) companies were classified as environmental reporting companies while the remaining companies were classified as non-environmental reporting companies. The classification was done in order to determine the differences between share price, profitability and market equity for both types of companies. The study hypothesizes that voluntary environmental reporting leads to an improvement in the shareholders wealth. However, the results show that there is no significant difference between cumulative abnormal return for environmental and non-environmental reporting companies. Based on the results obtained, it can also be concluded that profitability and size of the companies do not have any significant roles in deciding whether or not to produce environmental reporting companies.

This article deals with method of binary classification of images with small text on them Classification is based on the fact that the text can have 2 directions – it can be positioned horizontally and read from left to right or it can be turned 180 degrees so the image must be rotated to read the sign. This type of text can be found on the covers of a variety of books, so in case of recognizing the covers, it is necessary first to determine the direction of the text before we will directly recognize it. The article suggests the development of a deep neural network for determination of the text position in the context of book covers recognizing. The results of training and testing of a convolutional neural network on synthetic data as well as the examples of the network functioning on the real data are presented.
