Abstract: Stock market is a public place where issuing, buying, and selling of a fractional ownership in a company and it is one of the main focuses which could impact for the economy of a country. Key method where investors could profit from purchasing stocks is by selling their stock for a higher price than the purchased price where they can profit if the stock price increases from their initial purchased price. It is harder to predict how the stock rates change time to time and it is certainly a challenge to predict the rates of the shares. When a special event or an incident is happening or happened in the country or in the company, it will affect for the companies which depend or has an impact from the event. Stock prices of a company reacts according to the new information announced by companies or any event which has an impact for the company happens in the country. Usually, it happens after the reaction of the share prices which happened after receiving the new information about an event as investors pay attention to this information so that this will affect for the asset prices dynamically. Hence, the stock rates will be changed accordingly. At times, it will affect for the stock rates drastically after a certain time. The period can be within a day, a week, a month similarly. After an event or an incident occurred, at present there’s no method to predict the bearish or bullish period so that investors couldn’t gain a better or a maximum profit from the stock exchanges. Due to that investors could not get the opportunity to have the maximum profit from the stock trading. If an investor has a doubt on the time for the stock trade, then the maximum profit or rather better profit could not be reached if the stocks are bought or sold within an incorrect time frame. It would help to achieve more profit for an investor if there’s a way to predict the periods after a certain event where investors can purchase or sell the stocks. Therefore, to cater that problem, in this research project, it will be examined how the events or incidents impact on the market prices which outcome the bearish and bullish periods. According to that examined results, main goal is to predict the bearish and bullish status and the period after an event which impacts to the share prices. After that the results will be evaluated with the actual values to determine the accuracy of the predictions. It is always a challenge on determining the movement of stock market as it highly depends on traders' emotions, decisions etc. According to the results from this research study, impact and its period did not always outcome with accurate predictions, hence it also shows that sometimes the predictions could be correct and sometimes it could be incorrect.
