Abstract:
|
We consider stock market contagion as a significant increase in cross-market linkages after a shock to
one country or group of countries. Under this definition we study if contagion occurred from the U.S.
Financial Crisis to the rest of the major stock markets in the world by using the adjusted (unconditional)
correlation coefficient approach (Forbes and Rigobon, 2002) which consists of testing if average crossmarket
correlations increase significantly during the relevant period of turmoil. We would not reject the
null hypothesis of interdependence in favour of contagion if the increase in correlation only suggests a
continuation of high linkages in all state of the world. Moreover, if contagion occurs, this would justify
the intervention of the IMF and the suddenly portfolio restructuring during the period under study. |
