We find that the effect of social factors, such as increased attention to a stock's volatility, is more significant than public sentiment. A prediction model is introduced based on social factors and public sentiment to predict stock volatility. Our findings indicate that the influence of social media data on the next day's volatility is more significant but declines over time.展开更多
