Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates and analyzes the long-run equilibrium relationship between the Thai stock Exchange Index (SETI) and selected macroeconomic variables using monthly time series data that cover a 20-year period from January 1990 to December 2009. The following macroeconomic variables are included in our analysis: money supply (MS), the consumer price index (CPI), interest rate (IR) and the industrial production index (IP) (as a proxy for GDP). Our findings prove that the SET Index and the selected macroeconomic variables are cointegrated at I (1) and have a significant equilibrium relationship over the long run. Money supply demonstrates a strong positive relationship with the SET Index over the long run, whereas the industrial production index and consumer price index show negative long-run relationships with the SET Index. Furthermore, in non-equilibrium situations, the error correction mechanism suggests that the consumer price index, industrial production index and money supply each contribute in some way to restore equilibrium. In addition, using Toda and Yamamoto's augmented Granger causality test, we identify a bi-causal relationship between industrial production and money supply and unilateral causal relationships between CPI and IR, IP and CPI, MS and CPI, and IP and SETI, indicating that all of these variables are sensitive to Thai stock market movements. The policy implications of these findings are also discussed.

Book Synopsis Do MacRoeconomic Variables Have an Effect on the Us Stock Market? by : Dennis Sauert
Download or read book Do MacRoeconomic Variables Have an Effect on the Us Stock Market? written by Dennis Sauert and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2010 in the subject Economics - Case Scenarios, grade: 1.0, Berlin School of Economics, language: English, abstract: The objective of this paper is to examine whether the unanticipated change of specific macroeconomic variables influences the US stock market represented by the S&P 500 using monthly data from 1986 to 2007. Thereby, the performance of the arbitrage pricing theory of Ross (cp. Ross, S., 1976) shall be studied. To explain the behavior of the US stock market return the paper contains the five predefined variables consumer price index (CPI), industrial production index (IPT), money stock M1 (M1), total consumer credit outstanding (TCC) and the term structure of interest rates (Term) which are approximately similar to those variables used by Ross (cp. Chen N. F. et al., 1986, pp. 383-403). Applying the OLS method, it was found that CPI, IPT and Term are negatively related to the US stock return. It was also detected that M1 affects the stock market lagging 8 months and 12 months. However, the test statistics showed that TCC has rather no impact on the US stock market return. To ensure that the ultimate results are not spurious, care will be taken in regards to autocorrelation, multicollinearity, serial correlation as well as heteroskedasticity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India is taken into account a high potential investment destination all-over the world even though it has some challenges like political, social, cultural complexities.Wide literature survey is available on the macroeconomic factors affecting the Indian stock market volatility. There is a general belief on macroeconomic variable affects the functioning of stock market and its volatility (PallaviKudal 2010). In developing countries like India stock markets are sensitive to change in the macroeconomic variable. It is presumed that domestic economic fundamentals affect performance of the stock market but the changes in domestic variables may occur due to the changes in the global environment. This stimulates the researcher to find out whether the macroeconomic variable changes create any volatility in the Indian stock market. This study used the average monthly closing price of Nifty 50 from June 2000 to December 2016 and the average monthly data of 12 macroeconomic variables for analyzing, which factors influence the performance of Nifty 50 in India. In this study the selected variables are grouped into three factors by using factor analysis and named as macro environment factors, industrial performance factor and policy rates. The empirical result shows that macro environments and industrial performance factors are used to predict the variance in Nifty 50.

Book Synopsis Can Macroeconomic Variables Explain Long Term Movements of Stock Market Sector Indices? by : Erfan Mahmood Bhuiyan
Download or read book Can Macroeconomic Variables Explain Long Term Movements of Stock Market Sector Indices? written by Erfan Mahmood Bhuiyan and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the relationship between stock market returns and macro-economic variables has been amply examined, a gap exists in the literature regarding the relationship between different sector indices and various macroeconomic variables. This study intends to examine how certain macroeconomic variables influence different sectors of the stock market differently in the US and Canada. Using monthly data over the period 2000 – 2018, cointegration analysis is applied to model the relationship between real economic activity, money supply, long-term interest rate and different sector indices. Sectors that have been examined in this study include energy, financials, real estate, industrial, healthcare, consumer discretionary, consumer staples, materials, utilities and technology. Results suggest that there is a stable long-term relationship between the macroeconomic variables used in the study and different sector indices for the US but not for Canada. However, US money supply and interest rate can explain the Canadian Stock Market.
Book Synopsis Revisiting the Dynamic Relationship Between Macroeconomic Fundamentals and Stock Prices by : Deepa Mangala
Download or read book Revisiting the Dynamic Relationship Between Macroeconomic Fundamentals and Stock Prices written by Deepa Mangala and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between stock prices and macroeconomic variables varies across countries, time periods, datasets used, and the frequency of data used. Thus, an in-depth study to reinvestigate the relationship between selected macroeconomic variables i.e. inflation rate, exchange rate, index of industrial production, gold price, money supply and yields on treasury bills, and Indian stock market for the period of April 2005 to March 2014 has been carried out. In this study Johansen's cointegration test, vector error correction model (VECM), impulse response functions (IRFs), and variance decomposition (VDCs) test have been applied. The results of Johansen cointegration test indicates a significant negative relationship between exchange rate, inflation rate, and index of industrial production with stock prices whereas there exists a significantly positive relationship of money supply and yield on treasury bills with stock prices. Vector error correction model helps to determine both short and long run causal relationship between macroeconomic variables and stock price. The results found short run causality runs from exchange rate to Nifty, Nifty to money supply, and inflation rate whereas long run causality found from Nifty to short term interest rate and money supply.
Book Synopsis The Impact of Macroeconomic Variables on Stock Market Volatility by : Sarod Khandaker
Download or read book The Impact of Macroeconomic Variables on Stock Market Volatility written by Sarod Khandaker and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using data from ten developed and seven emerging countries, we analyse stock market's volatility and the macroeconomic factors that influence stock market's volatility from January 2001 till December 2012. We use standard historical volatility model followed by Jones et al. (1998) and Andersen and Bollerslev (1998) to calculate the historical stock market's volatility for the sample countries. Our results show that stock markets of the sample countries are volatile during the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) and these effects are statistically significant for the emerging county group. Selected macroeconomic variables and corporate governance indicators, such as rule of law, regulatory control and GDP per capita are positively associate with the stock market volatility, and corruption perception index and budget deficits are negatively correlated. Other macroeconomic variables such as, Co2 emission, tax revenue, agricultural value added and tourism receipt also found significant in the analysis. This suggests our sample emerging markets were volatile during 2007-2009 not only because of the GFC but also for the other macroeconomic factors. The robustness tests also produce a similar result with little variation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book contributes to the growing literature pertaining to empirical and policy issues in international trade, foreign capital flows and issues in finance, implications for India and emerging economies related to trade and development interface, and analysis of sector level growth and development in India. Further, the focus is on the policy aspects of these themes and their role in fostering economic development in the context of India and other emerging market economies. The discourse focuses mainly on empirical work and econometric details. The relevant issues are investigated using state of the art techniques such as gravity models, panel co-integration, generalized hyperbolic distributions, SEM, FMOLS and Probit models. In addition, detailed literature survey, discussions on data availability, issues related to statistical estimation techniques and a theoretical background, ensure that each chapter significantly contributes to the ever-growing literature on international trade and capital flows. The readers shall find an engaging dialogue on the crucial role played by policy and the trade-capital flows-growth experience of emerging economies. The book is relevant for those who are interested in contemporary issues in trade, growth and finance as well as for students of advanced econometrics who may benefit from the analytical and econometric exposition. The empirical evidences provided here could serve as ready reference for academicians, researchers and policy makers, particularly in emerging economies facing similar challenges.

Book Synopsis Stock Prices and Monetary Policy by : Paul De Grauwe
Download or read book Stock Prices and Monetary Policy written by Paul De Grauwe and published by CEPS. This book was released on 2008 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question of whether central banks should target stock prices so as to prevent bubbles and crashes from occurring has been hotly debated. This paper analyses this question using a behavioural macroeconomic model. This model generates bubbles and crashes. It analyses how 'leaning against the wind' strategies, which aim to reduce the volatility of stock prices, can help in reducing volatility of output and inflation. We find that such policies can be effective in reducing macroeconomic volatility, thereby improving the trade-off between output and inflation variability. The strength of this result, however, depends on the degree of credibility of the inflation-targeting regime. In the absence of such credibility, policies aiming at stabilising stock prices do not stabilise output and inflation.
Book Synopsis The Effect of Macroeconomic Variables on Stock Prices by : Shivangi Singh
Download or read book The Effect of Macroeconomic Variables on Stock Prices written by Shivangi Singh and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between fundamental macroeconomic variables of the economy and stock markets is an essential one. It affects the perspective of monetary and fiscal policy decisions, portfolio management and economic development. It has been studied that macroeconomic variables can influence investors' investment decisions. Over the world, many researchers have investigated the relationships between stock market prices and various macroeconomic variables. The focus of the current paper is to investigate whether the share price index can be considered as a reflection of economic activities in India. This study investigates the impact of five selected macroeconomic variables on Stock Market Liquidity of S&P CNX Nifty. As a result of this analysis, a simple model of the influence of macroeconomic fundamentals on the stock market index has been suggested. For better stock market performance, policy makers should put in place measures that will ensure a stable macroeconomic environment.
Book Synopsis Selecting Macroeconomic Variables as Explanatory Factors of Emerging Stock Market Returns by : Chris Bilson
Download or read book Selecting Macroeconomic Variables as Explanatory Factors of Emerging Stock Market Returns written by Chris Bilson and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging stock markets have been identified as being at least partially segmented from global capital markets. As a consequence, it has been argued that local risk factors rather than world risk factors are the primary source of equity return variation in these markets. This paper seeks to address the question of whether macroeconomic variables may proxy for local risk sources. We find moderate evidence to support this hypothesis. Further, we investigate the degree of commonality in exposures across emerging stock market returns using a principal components approach. We find little evidence of commonality when emerging markets are considered collectively, however at the regional level considerable commonality is found to exist.
Book Synopsis Causality Among Stock Market and Macroeconomic Factors by : Muhammad Hanif
Download or read book Causality Among Stock Market and Macroeconomic Factors written by Muhammad Hanif and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A recent development in financial markets is the creation of Shari'ah compliant stock universes. Shari'ah compliant stock universe is featured as socially responsible investments, less levered, and more reflective of the real sector. This study is conducted to understand and document the short-run equilibrium among important macroeconomic indicators and Equity indexes--Islamic and conventional--in the post-Shari'ah-screening era in Pakistan. Comparative study of linkages among stock indexes and macroeconomic variables is of great interest to i) identify the important macroeconomic factors; and ii) document whether Shari'ah screening of stocks has created any difference (in macro risk factors). We have included eight macroeconomic variables to study integration with stocks for 64 Months' period (07/2011-10/2016). Evidence has been obtained by application of correlation, unit root, OLS-regression and Granger causality tests. Findings suggest that both markets--Islamic & conventional--are integrated with selected macroeconomic indicators. However, evidence lacks the integration of markets themselves. We identify a set of two variables from real economy--exports and workers' remittances--linked with both markets, while the third variable is different for Islamic (industrial production) and conventional (money supply) markets. Important monetary variables--interest rate and inflation--have shown an insignificant association. Movements of Islamic index are in-line with the theory i.e. disassociation from interest and reflection of the real economy. Movements of conventional index cover both real and monetary sectors.KAUJIE Classification: L4.
