“The Impact of the Exchange Rate Volatilities on Stock Markets Dynamics” - An Article Review
The paper titled “The Impact of the Exchange Rate Volatilities on Stock Markets Dynamics” was published in the journal HAL in the year 2019, HAL is a multi-disciplinary open access archive for the deposit and dissemination of scientific research documents. The author Nesrine MECHRI et al., showed the effect of exchange rate volatility on the stock market with evidence from Tunisia and Turkey.
The data of this study covers a
sample period from January 2002 to January 2017, monthly data is used for the
study, in addition to exchange rates, he also used inflation rates, interest
rates, Gold prices, and petrol prices index in Tunisia and Turkey. To determine
the volatilities of variables he use the GARCH model which allows identifying
the dynamics of each variable in long term. Exchange rates and stock prices
have a crucial role in portfolio decisions and economic development. The main
objective of the paper was to study the impact of exchange rate and relative
price volatility on stock market fluctuations over the period 2002-2017 and it
found some interesting results, the GARCH model is used to measure the
volatility of time series and we have applied the multiple regression to
analyze the impact of the exchange rate and relative prices volatilities the stock
market fluctuations. The study results show the volatility of the exchange rate
