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: 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.

This book was released on 2012-05-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study explores long run and short run effects of macroeconomic variables i.e. consumer price index, industrial production, real effective exchange rate, money supply, and three months treasury bills rate on four stock indices i.e. KSE100 index, General index, LSE25 index, and ISE10 index relating three stock exchanges namely Karachi Stock Exchange, Lahore Stock Exchange, and Islamabad Stock Exchange in Pakistan. In order to study the long run and short run relationships Johansen cointegation technique and VECM was applied. The results showed that industrial production has long run positive impact on stock returns in all three markets. Exchange rate was positively affecting all indices except ISE10 index. Inflation was positively related with stock returns at Karachi Stock market, while it was negatively related with rest of the two markets. The money supply affected stock returns negatively, while treasury bills rate had mixed effect. The VECM analysis depicted that it takes more than four months, nine months, five months, and two months for the adjustment of disequilibrium of the previous period in case of KSE100 index, General Index, LSE25 index and ISE10 index respectively.

This book was released on 2015-12-03 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of macroeconomic variables on stock returns has been the subject of increased theoretical and empirical investigation in literature. This book aims to complement the literature by extending this presumed relationship between stock returns and a set of pre-determined domestic and global macroeconomic variables to the emerging stock markets of Bangladesh and India. Evidence for this relationship is drawn in this study through the research methods of Vector Autoregression and by applying empirical tests like Johansen cointegration and Vector Error Correction Models. Empirical findings of this research will provide further insights into understanding the underlying macroeconomic factors that can significantly impact the stock returns of selected stock markets of both Bangladesh and India. This study can also assist various academicians, researchers, policy makers and particularly the governments of these two developing countries to consider the influence of macroeconomic factors when regulating their stock markets, its returns and its policies.

This book was released on 2016-12-23 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study the forecasting power of financial variables for macroeconomic variables for 62 countries between 1980 and 2013. We find that financial variables such as credit growth, stock prices and house prices have considerable predictive power for macroeconomic variables at one to four quarters horizons. A forecasting model with financial variables outperforms the World Economic Outlook (WEO) forecasts in up to 85 percent of our sample countries at the four quarters horizon. We also find that cross-country panel models produce more accurate out-of-sample forecasts than individual country models.

This book was released on 2012-04 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing importance of Stock markets around the world has recently opened a new avenue of research into the relationships between Stock Market and Macroeconomic Variables. It is now a highly debatable area that stock market contributes to economic growth or the other way economic growth contributes to stock market. Researchers continuously make efforts on defining the relationship of stock market and macroeconomic variables. It has now become more difficult to define the relationships between them in the context of increased scarcity of resources, bilateral and multilateral free trade agreements, economic crises, rapidly changing political scenarios and high uncertainty and risks due to world wide terrorist activities. This book provides an insight into the stock market of Pakistan with special focus on macroeconomic variables like inflation, GDP etc effecting the Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE).
Download or read book Stock Market Response to Unexpected Macroeconomic News written by Mahdi Sadeghi and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1992-08-01 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides empirical evidence on the relationship between unexpected changes in macroeconomic variables and Australian stock returns over the period 1980-1991. The results suggest that stock returns are positively correlated with any surprise news in the current account deficit, the exchange rate and growth rate of real GDP, and negatively correlated with surprise news about the inflation rate and interest rates. Stock returns are also positively correlated with the unexpected unemployment rate and negatively correlated to revisions in the expected unemployment rate. The results furthermore suggest that market portfolios can detect the impact of common economic shocks better than the portfolios of the two main subsectors of the market.
Download or read book Do Macroeconomic Variables Affect Stock Returns in BRICS Markets An ARDL Approach written by Vanita Tripathi and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT) propounded by Ross in 1976 argued for a variety of macro economic variables (sources of systematic risk) in explaining stock returns. In the same vein, this paper examines the relationship between macroeconomic variables (GDP, inflation, interest rate, exchange rate, money supply, and oil prices) and aggregate stock returns in BRICS markets over the period 1995-2014 using quarterly data. We have applied Auto Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model to document such a relationship for individual countries as well as for panel data.Contrary to general belief, we find that GDP and inflation are not found to be significantly affecting stock returns in most of BRICS markets mainly because Stock returns generally tend to lead rather than follow GDP and inflation. In line with the theory and literature, we find significant negative impact of interest rate, exchange rate and oil prices on stock returns and a positive impact of money supply.This study would be a valuable addition to the growing body of empirical literature on the subject besides being useful to policy makers, regulators and investment community. Policy makers and regulator should watch out for impact of fluctuations in exchange rate, interest rate, money supply, and oil prices on volatility in their stock markets. Investor can search for arbitrage opportunities in BRICS markets on the basis of these variables but not the basis of GDP or inflation.
