Make your own forecastAbout American Express
American Express Company, founded in 1850 as an express freight business in New York, is a global payments and credit card company still headquartered in New York City. Unlike Visa and Mastercard, Amex operates a "closed loop": it issues most of its cards itself, runs the payment network, and signs up merchants directly. Its products range from premium consumer cards such as the Platinum and Gold cards to small business and corporate cards, along with travel services and the Membership Rewards loyalty program.
Its customers tend to be affluent consumers and businesses, which gives Amex high spending per card and makes card fees an important revenue source. Revenue comes from merchant discount fees, annual card fees and interest on revolving balances. Investors follow consumer spending trends, credit quality and loan loss provisions, marketing costs and competition for premium cardholders. The stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker AXP and is a member of the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
The current price of American Express stock is $321.95 (−0.73% vs. the previous close). In today's trading the high was $323.61 and the low $320.96.
How the Quantum Forecast works
Research from quantum physics. The models are the result of several years of research at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics and LMU Munich and were transferred to the stock market.
Spectra and correlations. Frequency spectra are calculated from current prices, and the relationships between price swings and volatility are analyzed. This produces the forecast and the risk assessment.
Detecting herd behavior. Models of phase transitions from statistical physics describe when investors collectively fall into panic or euphoria – an early sign of possible crash situations.
Swarm intelligence. User forecasts are checked once their time frame has expired and feed into the model, weighted by their hit rate.
