Comment Amount of socio-financial data = incomprehensible (Score 2, Interesting) 323
You can't just map all the data in the stock market and look for a pattern. The amount of socio-financial data to pattern would be... incomprehensible. This is truly a "butterfly effect" situation. Millions of rumors swirl throughout the trading floor - some make it to us as news - and mapping all that data... it's not that it is impossible, but conceiving of that today is unlikely.
You'd almost need some kind of impartial Bayseian analysis to traffic through millions of petabytes of data. There are patterns surely, just like the weather. Someday, they will be just as apparent.
