Today, people search almost everything online and the data about their searching activity can provide valuable information about their interests. Google makes data on the searching activity for individual terms publicly available in real-time and for history back to 2004. The goal of this project is to extend on the current state of knowledge with respect to the following three areas: (i) forecasting of credit volume using searches; (ii) internet searches as a proxy for news and its effect on oil price; and (iii) internet searches as a proxy for retail investor attention and its effect on stock price volatility. |
