Bridging the Gap Between Natural Language and Market Dynamics via High-Dimensional Representation Learning

arXiv:2605.30652v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Traditional multi-modal financial forecasting often relies on scalar sentiment scores, which fail to capture the nuances of financial news. To address this information loss, this paper explores high-dimensional representation learning by replacing discrete polarity ratings with dense FinBERT embeddings within a Transformer-based forecasting architecture. We benchmarked various embedding strategies on the FNSPID dataset, including raw embeddings, attention-weighted aggregation, and a custom Siamese network. While the attention-based mechanism stru

Why this matters
Why now

The increasing sophistication of large language models and representation learning techniques allows for more nuanced analysis of unstructured financial data than previously possible.

Why it’s important

Sophisticated financial forecasting is crucial for identifying market trends and making informed investment decisions, impacting various sectors from hedge funds to corporate strategy.

What changes

This research moves beyond scalar sentiment to high-dimensional embeddings for financial news, potentially leading to more accurate and granular market predictions.
