A Study of the Interdependence of Four Major Stock Markets Using a Vector Autoregression (open access)

A Study of the Interdependence of Four Major Stock Markets Using a Vector Autoregression

The question for this thesis is whether the four major stock markets--the United States, Great Britain, West Germany, and Japan are interdependent or segmented.

The thesis is divided into five chapters-- 1) statement of the problem; 2) survey of literature; 3) methodology; 4) results and 5) conclusions. The overall findings of this thesis indicate that there are few or no comovement similarities among all the four stock markets. However, the findings do point out the significant influence of the United States stock market on the other three stock markets.
