Social media plays a huge role spreading words to millions and influencing their opinions. Twitter is one of the most essential platform that reach over 300 million active users and 500 million tweets per day, it plays a significant role spreading the word around the world,.

In 2020 and 2021 there are various tweets that strike the stock market instantly both in the positive and negative direction. This study aims to predict the direction of his tweets and perform a sentiment analysis using both Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM) and Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Interface Systems (ANFIS)-SVM(Support Vector Machines) models. The dataset is obtained by using Twitter API which spans a time horizon of 5 years. In order to compare the results under same conditions same preprocessing steps are performed for both models. According to the results, LSTM performs a superior performance with its 72.2% accuracy against ANFIS-SVM model with 74.1%.
