This book was released on 2016 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report explores the relationship between stock prices and exchange rates in North America and China during the post-crisis period. It is found that there is a stable long-run relationship between stock prices and exchange rates in Canada and China, but not for the US. Another finding is that Canadian exchange rates and stock prices exhibit bi-directional Granger causality, which supports both "flow-oriented" model and "stock-oriented" model. Conversely, the two financial variables in China interact in a manner consistent with the "flow-oriented" model. On the other hand, no Granger causality is found between these two financial variables for the US in either direction. Finally, this report provides a few implications for monetary policy makers and global investors.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of the relationship between the exchange rate and the stock index has been a popular topic among the scholar around the world. Situations and variety in the data affected the findings of the studies. Daily data, monthly data and exchange rate type data yield different result. This thesis examined the sample period using the Johansen Cointegrative Method to determine whether there is a cointegrative relationship among the variables. A short run analysis was conducted by employing the VECM and VAR model. The cointegration analysis, exhibits evidence for the existence of a long run relationship among the JCI, the exchange rate of the Rupiah per Yen and also the N225. The findings are very important for policy makers. Anything that affects the stock market, especially for Indonesia, Japan and US, could have an effect on the Indonesia future due to the complexity and interest of the country. However, by understanding important facts that have been revealed from the study, policy makers could anticipate and maintain a good economic atmosphere.

Download or read book On Exchange Rates written by Jeffrey A. Frankel and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These seventeen essays provide an accessible and thorough reference for understanding the role of exchange rates in the international monetary system since 1973, when the rates were allowed to float. The essays analyze such issues as exchange rate movements, exchange risk premia, investor expectations of exchange rates and behavior of exchange rates in different systems. Frankel's sound empirical treatment of exchange rate questions shows that it is possible to produce work that is interesting from a purely intellectual viewpoint while contributing to practical knowledge of the real world of international economics and finance.The essays have been organized in a way that provides an introduction to the field of empirical international finance. Part I documents the steady reduction in barriers to international capital movement and leads logically to part II, which explains how exchange rates are determined. Both monetary and portfolio-based models are surveyed in part II, providing a clear transition to the topic of part III; the possible existence of an exchange risk premium. Part IV applies the tools discussed in earlier sections to explore various policy questions related to exchange rate expectations such as whether foreign exchange intervention matters and whether the European monetary system had become credible by 1991. Each part begins with a detailed introduction explaining not only the central issues of that section but also suggesting connections with other essays in the book.Jeffrey A. Frankel is Professor of Economics at the University of California, Berkeley.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aims to explore the nature of the relationship between stock prices and exchange rates in a sample of Arab countries that are facing political crises, those being: Syria, Tunisia, Egypt, and Bahrain. It applies monthly time series data of the nominal and real effective exchange rates and stock prices indices for the sample countries from January 2003 to July 2013. The study utilises the Johansen cointegration test, the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM), and the Granger causality in order to test the long run and short run dynamics between the two variables of interest. The results reveal that there is no short run or long run relationship between stock prices and exchange rates in Tunisia, this holds regardless of whether the nominal or the real effective exchange rate is used; however, for the rest of the countries, the results differ according to the period of study and the measure of exchange rate that has been used. Overall, the post crisis period produced different results than the pre crisis one, and the real effective exchange rate produced different results than the nominal one. Most of the results, except those related to Tunisia, have important implications for investors and policy makers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stock market investors trade securities that fluctuate based on a variety of factors. But the exchange market is a currency mechanism, and it is not subject to the same regulations and factors that make stock prices go up or down. Ian Charles Robert Gracias, a senior technical analyst and commodity and foreign exchange market trader, explores how stock markets and foreign exchange markets work in this book. He highlights topics such as: -economic indicators that affect the performance and operation of exchange rates; -direct and indirect ways that stock markets and exchange rates affect economic growth rates; and -ways individual investors can bolster returns by understanding how stock markets and exchange rates work Gracias pays particular attention to the stock markets and exchange rate markets in the United Kingdom and in the United States of America, examining the relationship between the FTSE 100 index and the NASDAQ 100 index as well as correlative patterns.

Download or read book Relationship Between Exchange Rate and Stock Price in India written by Gurmeet Singh and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study investigates the relationships between exchange rate and stock price over the period January 2007 to March 2014. Index National Stock Exchange, namely, NIFTY is used as indicator of stock price. Johansen's co-integration and Granger causality test have been applied to explore the long-run and short-run equilibrium relationship between exchange rate and stock price. The analysis reveals that exchange rate and stock price are co-integrated and, hence, a long-run equilibrium relationship exists between them. It is observed that the exchange rate and NIFTY as indicators of stock price are positively related to each other. The exchange rate is found to be significant in determining stock price and stock price significantly affects exchange rate. In the Granger-causality sense, exchange rate Granger-causes stock price and stock price Granger-causes exchange rate, or there is bi-directional causality between exchange rate and stock price in both long run and short run.

Download or read book The Nonlinear Dynamic Relationship Between Stock Prices and Exchange Rates in Asian Countries written by Ryuta Sakemoto and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores dynamic relationships between stock prices and exchange rates in Asian countries. These relationships are complex and include both linear and nonlinear relationships. We employ a nonparametric causality test to explore them. The nonparametric causality test is more robust to a nonlinear relationship. The empirical results reveal that most countries have bi-directional causality relationships between stock prices and exchange rates. Some relationships are not captured by the linear model. These results support the theoretical model which shows dynamic interactions between stock and exchange rate markets. This study investigates the main driver to generate the nonlinear causality relationships. The empirical results present that the main source for the nonlinearity is the volatility effects. In particular, they were substantial during the Asian and global financial crises. After controlling for the volatility effects, only one country shows the bi-directional causality relationship. In contrast to the previous studies, this study shows that the volatility effects are important between different asset markets. These findings suggest that controlling for exchange rate markets may be helpful to mitigate turmoil during a financial crisis.

Download or read book The Short Term Behaviour of Exchange Rates written by Georgios Katechos and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The understanding of the mechanism determining exchange rates is still an unsolved puzzle in the field of international economics. In the search for the underlying causes of the failure of existing approaches to explain a large proportion of short term exchange rate movements, our review of methodology literature revealed that a significant number of scholars consider the methodological approach employed by mainstream economics as a main cause for the disappointing result of established approaches. In particular, the excessive use of formal modelling and quantitative data as well as the use of oversimplified assumptions has been criticized. In response to this critique we chose to use a more pluralistic approach in our research methodology by employing both qualitative as well as quantitative data analysis. For the analysis of qualitative data, we employed an approach based on grounded theory principles, where we analyze Reuters Foreign exchange market reports. The findings of the qualitative data analysis show that, based on market practitioners commentary, there are two predominant variables affecting exchange rates. First, expectations on interest rate changes appears to be a major variable affecting currency value. An upward revision of interest rate expectations usually suggests an increase in the value of the currency concerned and vice versa. Second major variable affecting exchange rates appear to be global equity returns. In contrast to interest rates, which is a country specific variable, global equity returns is a global variable affecting currencies based on their relative interest rate levels and safe haven attributes. In particular, it is suggested that higher yielding currencies' value is positive related to global equity returns, while low/lower yielding and safe haven currencies' value is negatively related to global equity returns. The empirical test we performed to explore the relationship between exchange rates and global equity returns suggest that they are indeed linked. The sign of the relationship depends on the characteristics of the currencies examined. When equity prices increase, currencies with higher interest rates tend to appreciate, whereas currencies with lower interest rates tend to depreciate and vice versa. In addition, the strength of the relationship depends to some extent on relative interest differentials. A stronger relationship is observed when interest differentials are relatively large, while the explanatory power of the model is reduced when interest rate differentials are relatively narrow. Our study presents evidence on the role of stock markets in exchange rate determination which is considerable different to the focus of current theory. Whereas current research focuses on stock market's relative stock market returns in the respective countries, the findings of this thesis suggests that global stock market returns affect exchange rate movements based on differentiated characteristics of different currencies. Another important contribution of this thesis is that we illustrate the complexity of interactions and links among different variables. For example, whereas interest changes were seen as positively correlated to the home currency value, the relationship was seen as being reversed because of the possible effect of higher interest rates on the subprime crisis. Another example of complex links is the relationship between exchange rates and equity markets. For example, whereas the USD effective exchange rate was not related equity returns during the initial stages of the subprime crises, the strength of the relationship increased significantly when the crisis escalated and the demand for USD increased due to safe haven flows.

Download or read book A Re examination of Exchange Rate Exposure written by Kathryn M. E. Dominguez and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finance theory suggests that changes in exchange rates should have little influence on asset prices in a world that has become increasingly with integrated capital markets. Indeed, the existing literature examining the relationship between international stock prices and exchange rates finds little evidence of systematic exchange rate exposure. We argue in this paper that the absence of evidence may be due to restrictions imposed on the sample of data and the empirical specifications used in previous studies. We study a broad sample of firms in eight countries over an eighteen-year period. We find that firm-level and industry-level share values are significantly influenced by exchange rates. Further, we do not find evidence that exchange rate exposure is falling (or becoming less statistically significant) over time. Our results suggest that significant firm, industry and country-specific differences remain even as financial markets become more and more 'integrated'.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers have made considerable research on the aggressive relation among stock prices and exchange rates in the past. The linkage has grasped the intentions of researchers at the time of 1977-78 crises, worldwide financial crunch 2001-2002 and in 2007. The subject is also critical from the perspective of a modern large amounts of funds transfer across different country borders. This study explored the relationship among the stock prices and exchange rates of G20 countries over the period of 2005- 2019, investigated daily nominal exchange rates of G20 countries in US dollar and daily values of all G20 stock exchanges. Johansen's strategy adapted to check for the prices and exchange rates. Granger causality test applied to check causal relation among the stock prices and exchange rates of G20 countries. The results demonstrate that among various countries there is a causal relationship and between some countries, there is no such kind of relationship.

Download or read book An Empirical Relationship Between Exchange Rates Interest Rates and Stock Returns written by Sudharshan Reddy Paramati and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper study aims to investigate the relationship between call money rates, exchange rates and stock returns from the perspective of India. We use monthly data for the time span of April 1992 to March 2011. This provides sufficient data set for the empirical analysis. Result from Granger causality test evidences bidirectional relationship between call money rates and exchange rates. It is also identified that call money rates and exchange rates Granger cause stock returns and did not find reverse causality from stock returns to call money and exchange rates. To explore, lead-lag interaction among the variables studied we employed VAR models. Results suggest that there is substantial lead-lag relationship from call money rates to exchange rates and stock returns. Similar relationship also found from exchange rates to call money rates and stock returns. However, there is no evidence of lead-lag causation from stock returns to call money and exchange rates. Findings of this study are useful for the investors and policy makers. In investors' standpoint, they can utilize this historical information of call money rates and exchange rates for predicting the movements of stock returns. Similarly, policy makers can stabilize the stock market fluctuations by adopting appropriate policies towards interest rates and exchange rates for time to time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates the nature of the causal relationship between stock prices and effective exchange rates in four old EU-member countries (Austria, France, Germany, and the UK), four new EU-member countries (Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia) and in the USA. Both the long-run and short-run causalities between these variables are explored using monthly data. The paper also tries to answer the question whether the linkages between analyzed economic variables are of the similar intensity and direction in the old and new part of the EU and how has been the relationship changing over the analyzed period. The results show much stronger causality in countries with developed capital and foreign exchange markets (old EU-member countries and the USA) than in the new-comes. Evidence also suggests more powerful long-run as well as short-run causal relations in the period 1993-2003 than during 1970-1992. Causalities seem to be predominantly unidirectional with a direction running from stock prices to exchange rates. Finally, we also detected much stronger relations applying real effective exchange rate than nominal effective exchange rate.
