It is difficult to predict stock prices due to volatile financial markets and various economic factors. However, useful effective predictive techniques can offer great assistance to analysts and investors, and therefore much research keeps being conducted in this area. This study analyzed the predictive capabilities of two popular deep learning methods: Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP), based on a historical stock price dataset. This study conducted experiments through the daily stock prices of Google and a larger dataset that covered multiple international companies. It also evaluated the rigorousness of LSTM and MLP under many conditions, such as different fluctuation mechanisms, high and low price levels, and datasets of varying scales. The study found that the prediction accuracy of both LSTM and MLP was satisfactory. However, during stable and low-fluctuation periods, LSTM achieved better performance than MLP, but on smaller datasets, MLP showed stronger generalization capabilities. Therefore, to improve predictive capabilities, which model to use should be based on market context and data scale.

Under the dual challenges of fintech evolution and digital transformation, commercial banks face increasing limitations in traditional marketing prediction methods, which struggle with static customer profiling, low data utilization, and poor adaptability to real-time demands. This study addresses these gaps by proposing an XGBoost-based predictive framework to enhance precision marketing and risk-adjusted returns in banking scenarios. We integrate multidimensional features, including static attributes (e.g., age, occupation) and dynamic behavioral indicators (e.g., consumer confidence index, Euribor rates), to overcome the unidimensional profiling limitations of conventional approaches. Methodologically, XGBoost demonstrates superior performance through three innovations: firstly efficient handling of high-dimensional sparse data via parallel computing, reducing marginal processing costs while improving prediction accuracy (89% accuracy, 90% AUC). Secondly, mitigation of information asymmetry by synthesizing transactional, social, and macroeconomic features (e.g., employment variation rate, housing loans). Comparative analyses against five benchmark models (GBDT, Random Forest, Decision Tree, Logistic Regression, Bagging) confirm XGBoost’s dominance in AUC and F1-score, validating its capacity to resolve nonlinear interactions and temporal sensitivity in marketing campaigns. The model’s scalability enables cost-effective targeting. This research contributes to both algorithmic optimization in financial marketing and operational decision-making frameworks, though limitations persist in handling extreme class imbalances. Future work will explore hybrid architectures combining XGBoost with deep learning for cross-channel behavioral modeling.

This study focuses on the prediction of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) and inflection point issues in the Yangtze River Pearl River Delta basin in the future, and conducts an in-depth analysis by comprehensively applying multiple research methods. By combing the theoretical evolution of the Environmental Kuznets Curve, this study clarifies its historical process from proposal to development and its morphological changes in different contexts. Based on the current status of China's economy and environment, it is found that there is a complex relationship between economic growth and environmental pollution at the current stage. Although the emissions of some pollutants show a downward trend, the overall situation remains severe, and the timing of the inflection point is constrained by multiple factors. On the basis of analyzing influencing factors such as industrial structure, technological innovation, and environmental policies, this study constructs a dynamic computable general equilibrium model (CGE) to simulate the impacts of different policy combinations on the curve's inflection point, puts forward targeted policy recommendations to promote the coordinated development of economy and environment, and provides theoretical support and decision-making basis for China to achieve sustainable development.

The financial market is always changing rapidly, and it is crucial for people to monitor certain activities to ensure the overall safety of transactions or exchanges. The applications of machine learning have delved into many areas include but not limited to risk management, natural language processing, computer vision etc. This paper explores the application of five classic Machine Learning (ML) algorithms, including Decision Tree, Random Forest, Logistic Regression, XGBoost and Support Vector Machine (SVM) on loan application to test their raw performances on an imbalanced dataset, and comparing their results to determine which models behaves most ideally under very little optimization made. The project reveals common weaknesses for machine learning models when applying on some imbalanced dataset, where the recall and f1-score are not as ideal as accuracy and precision as they are biased toward the majority samples. However, models such as Random Forest does produce a desirable result, thus offering valuable reference under the context of determining the eligibility of loan applicants.

Stock market investment involves various levels of risk. This study attempts to solve the problem of classifying stocks into specific risk categories using fundamental and technical indicators. This study helps bridge the gap between theoretical classification of risks and practical trading approaches for various investment styles. The author employs quantitative methods such as descriptive statistics, risk scoring, time series analysis, and Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) modeling on 10 diverse U.S. stocks from January 2020 to current date. These analyses provided evidence of three risk categories with distinct volatility patterns. Relative Strength Index (RSI) has been found to be the most statistically relevant variable for all returns, while volatility had the largest absolute coefficient of returns. The author found that ARIMA(0,1,0) best fit all stocks. This indicated that all stocks followed a random walk with drift, regardless of risk category, but with regular risk stocks exhibiting slightly more predictability than conservative or aggressive. These results will be useful to portfolio managers and investors who wish to adjust their stock portfolios according to their risk appetite by helping align stock selection with risk tolerance while indicating which technical indicators are useful for different styles.

The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area (GBA) achieves the goal of integration and sustainable development of all regions through the creation of comprehensive smart cities. Leveraging the smart city effect plays a crucial role in the development of the GBA. However, the key to creating a good smart city in each region lies in whether the region’s public finance system can be effectively utilised to achieve the fundamental objective of promoting smart city development through the key role of digital technology for governance, infrastructure and innovation. This study examines findings on local development disparities in the GBA and their impact on infrastructure, public services, and industrial innovation, and proposes measures to improve cross-regional fiscal coordination. The measures are developed through case studies and policy comparisons, with a focus on Shenzhen’s intelligent transport. Recommendations include the establishment of a joint municipal financing mechanism, the promotion of inter-city cooperation, and the enhancement of private sector participation through a public-private partnership model. The paper highlights the importance of establishing institutionalised fiscal relations to ensure the building of equitable and efficient smart cities in the GBA.
