The thesis consists of a kappa and research papers with five predictive models. A model for iPhone sales using Twitter data, a model for H&M sales using Facebook data and a model for Mikkeller beer sales using Facebook
and Google search data. A general model for predictions based on social media and Google search data.
Lastly a predictive model for investor behaviour using Google search data. The key contributions propose a
