Over the past few years, the application of deep learning models to finance has received much attention from investors and researchers. Our work continues this trend, presenting an application of a Deep learning model, long-term short-term memory (LSTM), for the forecasting of commodity prices. The obtained results predict with great accuracy the prices of commodities including crude oil price (98.2 price(88.2 on the variability of the commodity prices. This involved checking at the correlation and the causality with the Ganger Causality method. Our results reveal that the coronavirus impacts the recent variability of commodity prices through the number of confirmed cases and the total number of deaths. We then investigate a hybrid ARIMA-Wavelet model to forecast the coronavirus spread. This analyses is interesting as a consequence of the strong causal relationship between the coronavirus(number of confirmed cases) and the commodity prices, the prediction of the evolution of COVID-19 can be useful to anticipate the future direction of the commodity prices.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
