Integration of 22 emerging stock markets: A three-dimensional analysis
Stockholm University, Faculty of Social Sciences, Stockholm Business School, Finance.
2012 (English)In: Global Finance Journal, ISSN 1044-0283, E-ISSN 1873-5665, Vol. 23, no 1, p. 34-47Article in journal (Refereed) Published
Abstract [en]

We apply the three-dimensional analysis of wavelet coherency to examine the integration of 22 emerging stock markets with the U.S. market. We find a high degree of co-movement at relatively lower frequencies between the U.S. and the 22 individual emerging markets. Our results show that the strength of co-movement, however, differs by country. For example, we report a high degree of co-movement between the U.S. and Brazil, Mexico and Korea, but low co-movement with and Egypt and Morocco. Our analyses also document a general change in the pattern of the market relationship after 2006, where we detect co-movements at relatively higher frequencies. Co-movement at the highest frequencies is, however, weak for fluctuations with duration less than a year. Our findings imply that investing selectively in emerging markets may provide significant diversification benefits which, invariably, depend on the investment horizon.
