They are things that are based on past stock and market performance and various types of evidence of market sentiment. This is all a matter of collecting and analyzing data.

If the market price is less than the intrinsic value of stock it is a buy and if the market price greatly exceeds the current stock price it is a sell. Successful long term investors like Buffet exercise informed judgement rather than blindly chasing the most recent bright and shiny stock. The most successful AI investing tool will need to imitate Buffett, both by knowing which investments to pick and which to avoid. Investing Insights A useful insight from Buffett is that the high tech arena moves too rapidly that it is virtually impossible to know when an idea in a scientist’s head is going to became a viable product or investment niche.
