the present research aims to evaluate impacts of crude oil price return index, bloomberg petroleum index and bloomberg energy index on stock market returns of 121 companies listed in tehran stock exchange in a 10 years' period from early 2006 to april 2016. first, explanatory variables were aligned with petroleum products index mostly due to application of dollar data. subsequently, to che...

This paper employs a bivaraite vector autoregressive-generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (VAR-GARCH) model recently developed by Ling and McAleer (2003) to examine the impact of oil price fluctuations on stock market returns in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia over the period from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2011. The proposed model is estimated using maximum likelihood met...

The determinants of exchange rates have attracted considerable attention among researchers over the past several decades. Most studies, however, ignore the possibility that the impact of oil shocks on exchange rates could vary across the exchange rate returns distribution. We employ a quantile regression approach to address this issue. Our results indicate that the effect of oil shocks on excha...

Volatility in stock markets has been extensively studied in the applied finance literature. In this paper, Artificial Neural Network models based on various back propagation algorithms have been constructed to predict volatility in the Indian stock market through volatility of NIFTY returns and volatility of gold returns. This model considers India VIX, CBOE VIX, volatility of crude oil returns...

oil-exporting economies largely dependent on oil revenues and oil income fluctuation are one of the most important factors that influence sectors of the economy specially the stock market. this paper investigate the relationship between oil markets and stock return volatility and transmission in a selection of opec countries, using a multivariate garch models (full-vech) over the period may 201...

Stock market plays a very influential role for the economy of any country. Energy sector is considered as one of the dominating sectors in the stock market. This sector is evidently affected by oil and gas prices and performance of this sector is evaluated by stock returns of the oil & gas companies. Therefore, the study of such stock returns always remains an objective of interest for many fin...

Title of thesis: COMPARING REGIME-SWITCHING MODELS IN TIME SERIES: LOGISTIC MIXTURES: vs. MARKOV SWITCHING Dimitrios V. Paliouras Master of Science, 2007 Thesis directed by: Professor Benjamin Kedem Department of Mathematics The purpose of this thesis is to review several related regime-switching time series models. Specifically, we use simulated data to compare models where the unobserved stat...

the theoretical base of this paper is the economic growth model that completed with capital stocks (private and public) and human capital. at the first, hypothesis test about constant returns to scale is studied, and then the related variables with macroeconomic policies are added to the model. the results show that 1) the aggregate production function exhibits increasing returns to scale, 2) p...
