Ting Li and Jan van Dalen of RSM have found a way for traders to use Twitter to make better investment decisions. Over a million twitter messages that mentioned stocks listed on the S&P 100 share index were analysed. Li comments that "this could be used by institutional investors or home-based day traders and proves that Twitter isn’t just noise – useful information can be extracted and could help investors make better decisions.”
