# Modern-FinBERT: Financial Sentiment Analysis  

`Modern-FinBERT` is a **pre-trained NLP model** designed for **financial sentiment analysis**. It extends the [`ModernBERT-large`](https://huggingface.co/answerdotai/ModernBERT-large) language model by further training it on a **large financial corpus**, making it highly specialized for **financial text classification**.  

For fine-tuning, the model leverages the **[Financial PhraseBank](https://www.researchgate.net/publication/251231107_Good_Debt_or_Bad_Debt_Detecting_Semantic_Orientations_in_Economic_Texts)** by Malo et al. (2014), a widely recognized benchmark dataset for financial sentiment analysis.  

### Sentiment Labels  
The model generates a **softmax probability distribution** across three sentiment categories:  

- ✅ **Positive**  
- ❌ **Negative**  
- ⚖ **Neutral**

# How to use
You can use this model with Transformers pipeline for sentiment analysis.
```bash
pip install -U transformers
```

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification, pipeline

# Load the pre-trained model and tokenizer
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained('beethogedeon/Modern-FinBERT', num_labels=3)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('answerdotai/ModernBERT')

# Initialize the NLP pipeline
nlp = pipeline("text-classification", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)

sentence = "Stocks rallied and the British pound gained."

print(nlp(sentence))
```
