With the development of new technologies like artificial intelligence, big data analysis, and blockchain, and the emergence of alternative data like social media data, textual data and news data, a revolution is taking place in financial research. New technologies and new data not only provide us a broader perspective of financial research but also increase the knowledge and understanding of finance in academia and investment industry.
