A stock selection algorithm hybridizing grey wolf optimizer and support vector regression

作者:

Highlights:

• A new stock selection algorithm is proposed.

• Grey wolf optimizer is innovatively hybridized with support vector regression.

• The performance of hybridizing different meta-heuristics is compared.

• The new algorithm can achieve excess returns in American and Chinese markets.

• The effectiveness and superiority of the new algorithm are empirically examined.
