Predictive Analysis of Tesla Inc. Stock with Machine Learning
Article thumbnail
Tesla currently stands among the world's most prominent corporations, especially in the development of new energy sources and the automotive industry. With the company's growth rising, the value of its stock has become a major focus for investors. There are many ways to predict stock prices, but most of them are more subjective and based on personal experience, so the value of the reference is not great and varies from person to person. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate whether it is possible to analyze the price trend of Tesla's stock from the perspective of data through machine learning. The research will examine the stock price of Tesla based on the ARIMA-LSTM combined model prediction method to determine if this method can be applied to predict the stock price trend of Tesla and similar technology companies. Finally, after testing Tesla's stock data in 2019, it can be concluded that the machine learning prediction method based on the ARIMA-LSTM combination model is highly accurate and can be used to predict the future stock price trends of similar companies.

Hence, corporate cash holdings are a concern by managers and investors as it represents the survival ability of companies. This study investigates information asymmetry and corporate cash holdings during COVID-19 pandemic period. After analyzing on large Chinese lised companies sample, we test two opposing hypotheses. According to free cash flow theory, cash flow declines further as the level of information asymmetry rises. However, considering profound event, companies may increase cash holdings for precautionary motive during a long time. As a result, using the difference-in-difference method, this paper finds a positive relationship between information asymmetry and cash holdings, while COVID-19 hurts cash holdings for Chinese listed companies. The robustness test also gains similar results. Overall, the results may support the agency theory and precautionary motives for holding cash.

Innovation in Cross-Border Supply Chain Inventory Management Driven by Big Data
This paper explores the transformative impact of big data technology on cross-border supply chain inventory management. In the era of globalization, supply chains face increased complexities and risks, particularly in cross-border logistics. Challenges include transportation uncertainties, delays due to long-distance transport, infrastructure disparities, and transparency issues. Integrating big data analytics offers a solution to these challenges by enabling predictive analytics for demand forecasting, inventory optimization, and risk management. This study highlights the role of big data in enhancing supply chain transparency, reducing uncertainties, and improving decision-making processes. Examples from JD E-commerce and NongFu Spring demonstrate the practical application of big data in optimizing inventory management and mitigating risks. JD E-commerce employs artificial intelligence and big data analytics for inventory management, leading to reduced turnover days and cost efficiency. NongFu Spring, on the other hand, uses big data for scenario marketing and supply chain optimization. The paper concludes that big data technology not only revolutionizes inventory management but also plays a crucial role in addressing risks in the supply chain, thus leading to more efficient, transparent, and resilient supply chains in the face of globalization challenges.
